Hi..
Check for any visual air leak.
Check for any visual electrical problem.
On battery Alternator, terminal and connectors.
Check the ingnition coil 6 cyl ( Coils 8 cyl.)
For any malfuntion or loss of spark.
But I recomend get the car Scannned to see if there any Diagnostic CODE.
IF you want to buy One you can do. you will use with your car and maybe friends.
But if Not. Some AUTOPARTS, make a diagnostic without charge for that.
I will able to help with the right especification or information about any CODE. if you can get the code number.
I hope this help to start diagnistic your problem.

hi if the torque coverter is faulty it will not run right as this is what transferes the engines power to the box change it before it damages the box that will be expensive as the metal parts in the coverter will break up and will transfere it through your box if it hasn,t allready done so best of luck yates210456
SOURCE: 2000 ford super duty 7.3 diesel will not cold start
you need to have the engine coolant switch
checked,since the computer relies solely on sensors,the ect tells the computer how cold or hot it is so the
computer will make it a rich or lean mixture to start the engine,if it tells the
computer that it is 75 degrees the computer will lean the mixture like starting
a car in the winter without a choke.

Hi, i want you to clean the air intake valve and idle speed control valve, follow the procedure below.
Here are the common cause of surges, cold stalls, stalls at stops, slow idle speed, erratic idle speed, rough idle and engine hesitation (and other problems), it is in most cases the idle speed control air-bypass valve and or throttle valve and upper intake, these area's get full of gunk and combustion residue over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls, low idle) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake.

Several thnigs to check there; review all informastion disponible to do it and solve this...
P0356 - Ignition Coil F Primary/Secondary Circuit Malfunction
The ignition signal from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) or Electronic Control Module(ECM) is sent to and amplified by the power transistor. The power transistor turns ON and OFF the ignition coil primary circuit. This ON/OFF operation induces the proper high voltage in the coil secondary circuit.
Symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Lack/Loss of Power
- The engine may be harder to start
- Engine hesitation
Possible Causes:
- Open or short in the ignition coil circuit
- Ignition coil circuit shorted to ground
- Ignition coil connector
- Damaged ignition coil
- Damaged PCM or ECM
Possible Solution:
- If damage, repair ignition coil circuit
- Replaced ignition coil
- Replaced PCM or ECM

P0152 - O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 2 Sensor 1)
The heated oxygen sensor 1 is placed into the exhaust manifold. It
detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas compared to the outside
air. The heated oxygen sensor 1 has a closed-end tube made of ceramic
zirconia. The zirconia generates voltage from approximately 1V in richer
conditions to 0V in leaner conditions. The heated oxygen sensor 1
signal is sent to the ECM. The ECM adjusts the injection pulse duration
to achieve the ideal air-fuel ratio. The ideal air-fuel ratio occurs
near the radical change from 1V to 0V.
Symptoms:
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- High Fuel Consumption
- Excessive Smoke from Exhaust
Possible Causes:
- Harness or connectors (The heated oxygen sensor 1 heater circuit is open or shorted.)
- Front Heater oxygen sensor heater (Bank 2) may be faulty
Possible Solution:
Replacing the O2 Sensor 1 usually takes care of the problem
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P0174 - Fuel Injection System Too Lean Bank 2
With the Air/Fuel Mixture Ratio Self-Learning Control, the actual
mixture ratio can be brought closely to the theoretical mixture ratio
based on the mixture ratio feedback signal from the heated oxygen
sensors 1. The ECM calculates the necessary compensation to correct the
offset between the actual and the theoretical ratios.
In case the amount of the compensation value is extremely large (The
actual mixture ratio is too lean.), the ECM judges the condition as the
fuel injection system malfunction and light up the MIL (2 trip detection
logic).
Symptoms:
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Excessive Fuel Consumption
Possible Causes:
- Intake air leaks
- Front Heated oxygen sensor may be faulty
- Injectors may be faulty
- Exhaust gas leaks
- Incorrect fuel pressure
- Lack of fuel
- Mass air flow sensor may be faulty
- Incorrect PCV hose connection
Possible Solution:
Dirty air filter of faulty air flow sensor are common causes of the problem.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P2197 - DODGE - Sys Too Rich at Hier Load Bank1
Means that the O2 sensors on each bank are seeing WAY
too much oxygen in the exhaust gas. In normal operation the signal from
the O2 sensors should swing back and forth between rich and lean.
Your sensors are locked on lean.
Those codes are the same as P0174 (and P0171). Sounds like you have a
vacuum leak somewhere. Most common place is the PCV elbow where it
connects to the throttle body adapter.

Hope this helps; keep in touch.
