SOURCE: I have a 2003 Ford F350 7.3 diesel engine,Engine

you may have two hoses that hooked into your radiator that help cool you oil. If the radiator breaks down inside than you need to replace the radiator. The radiator probably has four tubes or hoses bolted to the tanks. Two four transmission two for cooling oil. If so you need to replace the radiator and flush out the cooling system and clean out the water jug. Do not wait long cause you could clogg your heater core with oil. and also cause the vehicle to over heat and that is not good for diesels.leave comment

Sounds like it may be a leaking head gasket. I suggest compression testing all cylinders, or for a more pinpointed diagnosis a leak-down test.

Changed fuel filters in 6.0L ford diesel. now it wont start.

the filters need to be pumped with fuel, should show you hoe in the owners manual; empty filters cause the same effect as running out of diesel.

My girlfriend filled my tank with diesel and now the car will not start or run. Obviously. What would be the easiest way to fix this problem? I have a 2007 ford five hundred.

Remove as much diesel fuel as possible from the gas tank and refill it with gasoline. You may have to crank the car to purge the diesel fuel out of the fuel lines. After that, it should start and run okay. There should be no damage to the engine from the diesel fuel.

Fill it up with the highest octane fuel, use gas treatment and fuel injection system cleaner, and drive the diesel out of the system. The car will not like it, the engine may knock and stutter and generally not want to cooperate. After a few tanks of good gas and gas treatment and engine cleaner you may consider replacing the fuel filter. If this solution worked, it would be the cheapest.

Ford fiesta diesel endura turn's over & try's

Normally, only 2 things stop a diesel from firing:
1. no fuel
2. not enough compression

No fuel can be caused by (obviously no fuel) or a failed fuel pump. To test, have someone turn the engine over and then sniff at the exhaust - does it smell of unburned diesel? (If you've run out of diesel recently, you may have an airlock in the system, this needs bleeding out.)

Not enough compression needs specialised equipment to test - that's a garage job.

2003 ford transit diesel fuel getting to injectors engine is turning over but not firing

Have your injection pump checked. If the diesel fuel feed
going to the pistons is not highly atomized, there's no way that the diesel fuel gets to explode to keep your
engine to run. However, also check the air filter system
going to your engine. To get the diesel fuel to explode needs right air fuel ratio. Once these are checked, I'm
sure you get your diesel car running.
