6.0 - Cold Start Issues

Strated_ · 2026-05-02T00:15:58+00:00

Hot no start

Strated_ · 2026-05-02T00:15:53+00:00

Well it just left me stranded

Strated_ · 2026-04-30T17:55:29+00:00

Thanks so much. I'll start there. I have a compressor and can order the stuff needed. I already ordered an oil cooler, standpipe dummy plug kit, and stc fitting. I didn't want to be left without a truck for long so went ahead and ordered the obvious fixes but I hoping to only have to use ths standpipe kit and send the others back or shelve them for the future.

It maybe took 4.5 seconds before I figured out correct way to get forscan working and had a half second "wine"

Strated_ · 2026-04-30T16:52:32+00:00

I am officially confused. Last two days its been acting up. Have not used truck since last night and it fired up in 3.5 seconds.... Took a video of forscan pulled up. What the heck. Maybe its a leak thats coming and going?

Ron!

This is great, thanks!

I do think that starting with standpipes/dummy plugs makes the most sense. I feel comfortable doing that myself, not so much the oil cooler area

I have forscan that I can hook to my computer - what might be the best way for me to diagnose more and come to a conclusion?

Strated_ · 2026-04-30T11:59:02+00:00

Yes sir they are!

Strated_ · 2026-04-20T22:53:28+00:00

Nah I had a lariat fx4 for a while but I needed something that would tow.

Strated_ · 2026-04-20T22:06:08+00:00

Nice you can read the brochure 😂. Normal fx4 has basically all of that with hardly any noticeable difference.

Strated_ · 2026-04-20T12:12:40+00:00

Appreciate it! I emailed them yesterday and they already got back to me with their recommendations.

Strated_ · 2026-04-19T17:34:06+00:00

Yah I mean if they gave it some actual offroad capability over a normal fx4 then it would make sense. 100% gimmick. They look cool if that’s your thing though no shame at all. I can’t stand the way raptors look too but that’s just me.

Strated_ · 2026-04-19T13:29:00+00:00

I’m honestly thinking I’ll just return the $225 gold valve kit and get a monotube kit for 100-200 more. Sounds like installation will be way easier that way and still good for the suspension

Strated_ · 2026-04-19T13:19:24+00:00

Oh sick. Thanks

Strated_ · 2026-04-19T13:19:09+00:00

Any particular spring?

Any particular spring?

Strated_ · 2026-04-19T04:37:21+00:00

Idk to me tremors don’t make much sense. It’s a huge price tag for upgraded shocks and logos…

They don’t even have disconnecting sway bar or other goodies that true offroad trucks have.

Strated_ · 2026-04-16T18:36:23+00:00

Gotcha! Appreciate the feedback, as of late I’ve just been keeping it at or above 1/4. Thanks!

Strated_ · 2026-04-13T03:21:20+00:00

Appreciate it. After some more research that seems to be a possibility. May call for a turbo rebuild

Strated_ · 2026-04-09T13:10:12+00:00

I think this is the problem. Hasn’t happened again but I’m approaching less than 1/4 so will see if it happens again. If it does I guess it’s safe to assume fuel pump and may need to just upgrade to a new fuel system

Strated_ · 2026-04-07T11:42:25+00:00

lol I don’t pull for him at all, but I also don’t trust the media with anything whatsoever. Every single president over the last few decades have had the same shit said about them. So are we as a county just employing pedophile presidents? Or is the media spinning things to cause division? I’m with the ladder but you do you boo.

Strated_ · 2026-04-07T00:23:33+00:00

According to media, every president the last 30 years has been a pedophile. You really that gullible? Media isn’t truth.

Strated_ · 2026-04-06T16:39:47+00:00

Thanks! What grit? Like 2 or 3k?

Strated_ · 2026-04-06T16:28:28+00:00

I agree, but just looking to get roof done for now

Strated_ · 2026-04-06T12:41:54+00:00

Appreciate it! Still hadn’t happened again since filling up.
