Q&A

I have a 2005 F250 6.0 Turbo diesel lariat with about 134,000 miles. recently i was at a stop sign and when i went to take off no throttle. Was taken the kiddos to school so i pushed it to the side walked them to school came back and truck started and now i had throttle. thought maybe bad gas? anyway about two weeks later same thing this time at a traffic light. I shut truck off thinking about last time but truck won't start (battery went dead)towed it to dealer said i needed tension rod but what that had to do with no throttle he couldn't answer. Day I went to pick truck up they tell me I need an EGR Valve and my turbo cleaned out. put new EGR valve on haven't had my turbo cleaned (they wanted $875.00,to do both which i was told was to high) so i have a buddy that replaced my EGR. Ran fine for about two weeks, now it seems to happen once a day, it could be in the morning or i can drive all day with no problem and all of a sudden on my way home bam no throttle. Some days I have trouble getting it started when i do i usually have no throttle.
