I have a 2003 Ford F-250 6.0 diesel and recently had the engine light come on. I hooked the obdII up and found codes po401 and po460. I replaced the egr valve after cleaning out minimal soot.

code p 0401 is the EGR va;ve but the principle reasons for problems are EGR valve
EGR solenoid
hose blockage and wiring
code p 0460 refers tois the fuel tank level sensor--low input===causes ---wiring short to ground --fuel level sensor--ECm

Can a check engine light with and error code of EGR cause black soot in the tailpipe of a 2005 dodge grand caravan???

Hi. The black soot is that your engine is running too rich. I would have checked out the O2 sensor. The O2 sensor tells the computer how much gas is needed to run your car. If the sensor is malfunctioning or dead the computer will make the engine run with more gas (rich) Go to your mechanic and have him run the code scanner. I would also clean out the EGR valve which you can do yourself. Good luck

Black smoke from exhaust, rough idle, black soot on plugs

signs of a bad fuel pressure regulator-- the vehicle will run rough, the engine will not start ( usually in the mornings,) many times engine starts but stalls shortly after starting. a bad regulator can result in fouled plugs. replacement is only cure. 1- black soot on plugs-2-black smoke from tailpipe-3- running rough-4- stalling, good-day! repost if need be.

Getting a engine code PO420.My code book says Catalyst efficiency below threshold(bank1).What does that mean I HAVE TO DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM.i

Hi, the usual cause is a worn out catalytic converter, but this code may also set due to a rich mixture. Check your tailpipe for soot or black film. If the pipe looks OK, replace the catalytic converter. If your converter is recently replaced or you have soot, please get back to me for a different plan of action.

EGR is maybe stuck open. disconnect the vac hose at the EGR valve and see if the idle smoothes out. If the EGR is sitcking open, thats a vac leak. If that fixes it, replace the EGR solenoid valve.

Black soot in water? You mean water in the tailpipe or black soot in the coolant in the radiator? Have you tested the manifold air temp sensor and the throttle position sensor? If they were OK, you may just have worn injectors that are allowing a bit too much fuel flow or a bad spray pattern. In the meantime, you could try replacing the plugs with a set that is one heat range hotter. If the plugs become slightly fouled, that can cause a snowball effect which makes the situation worse.

2004 Excursion 6.0 diesel blows intermitent white smoke

I don't drive a Ford but I drive an International and white smoke on start up means the engine is too cold to properly burn the fuel. Your black oil or soot is unburnt fuel. You should look at your engine's preheat system for a malfunction.

BLACK SOOT AND WATER COMING FROM TAILPIPE

It sounds like you may have gotten a Tank of Contaminated Fuel. Try to Run a Can of B12 Chemtool through the Fuel Tank and see if it will not Clear up. You can get the B12 Chemtool at Wal-Mart in the Automotive Section or at Your Local Autoi Parts Store.

This engine is plagued with egr issues! the 4.3 liter engine is suspect to carbon build upo inside the intake, the chunks of carbon break off and plug up egr so the pintle can not close fully...the good news is the valve is not bad.... remove the valve, carefully clean the pintle free of debris. start the vehicle with egr valve out..make sure wiring for valve is out of the way....it will be very loud..rev it up and down a few times to help purge carbon chunks out of the intake. reinstall valve..this should help you..

ps your 4 thumbs up is appreciated!
