That job looks like a bit of a PIA. Thanks for the tips & tricks sir. Every little bit helps. You make great content that helps other mechanics by saving them time and effort. It is most definitely appreciated. 👍👍
Thank you very much I had same issue with my truck 05 5.9 Cummins 6spd dually Power loss at top end everything checks good Air filter bunch it up like how you describe it Problem solve Thanks again you are awesome
I have the exact same thing on a truck I’m looking at buying. Was concerned bout the shear gutless performance and your video has shown me what to check and help determine this trucks issue. Then start beating the guy down on price 😁
I have a 2006 ford f650 rollback with the 5.9 Cummins. The egr transfer tube just started leaking/hissing, and when it does it seems to have loss of power. It has been doing this same cutting in and out of power under load thing you described in the video. Do you think egr pipe leak would cause the loss of power? I figured that was only exist gas, not boost. Any input you have would be helpful. Thanks man. -Rick
Honestly any exhaust leaks can contribute to a lack of power on a diesel but the kind of lack of power I had in this video was the Turbo getting choked, cannot produce any boost if you cannot breathe. If you message me on Instagram I can try to help you out. Thanks for watching.
2003 6bta 5.9 marine idles great, when turbo spins up around 2200rpm and higher, tons of power and clean.. on the way to 2200, she smokes and is very slow to speed up … thoughts?
@@NutsandBoltswithTone I have a 2002 Ford F750 5.9 Cummins engine it's a box truck and it's reading stop engine losing power what do you suggest the problem may be?
Hey Tone you mentioned how you could duplicate the acceleration issue, after the vehicle loses power what would you do to reset the vehicle so that it would drive at normal operational specs and start all over again ?
Hey bud, in my situation the air filter would suck in and cause the airflow restriction, then when throttle was let off air filter would let up a little. The filter would pull in then release. This vehicle was not going into limp mode or anything it would just have lack of power due to not enough air entering the turbo. Thank you for watching the video I appreciate it.
Not really, I've honestly never had an issue with the head just the manifold. If you pull cylinder head u should always straight edge the block though.
Don't take your truck to a dealer. They know nothing about troubleshooting digital electronics.
To be fair I think that everywhere has crappy techs. Dealers and Independents. Thank you for watching.
Have you ever had problems with using aftermarket pressure sensors in the 5.9?
Map sensor
Not sure I have put aftermarket ones in, I do not recommend it unless it is all you can get. That is a really important sensor

It was a PIA haha. I am happy to be helping other techs. I appreciate it brotha

@johnM-Jr most people never pop the hood.
Good stuff, Tony. That looks easier than a Duramax, you have more room at least.
Oh for sure . Thanks for watching.

My boss would have said to glue the mesh back onto the filter and make it work🤣👍
Haha crazy. The aftermarket filter was about one inch thinner then oem filter also.
Should you also straight edge the head?
Not really, I've honestly never had an issue with the head just the manifold. If you pull cylinder head u should always straight edge the block though.
I like Hastings and Wix.
As long as it's a good aftermarket filter. I've chased my ass too many times when all it was was an aftermarket filter. Thanks for watching.
