    BE A LITTLE MORE SPECIFIC. WHEN IT RUNS, DOES IT SMOKE? THAT MOTOR HAS ISSUES WITH THE TEMP SENSORS AND THE IAT SENSOR. MAKE SURE YOU ARE GETTING 5 VOLTS AT THE HARNESS SIDE OF THE SENSORS WITH THE SENSORS UNPLUGGED AND THE KEY ON, ENGINE OFF. THAT INCLUDES THE O2 SENSOR IN THE EXHAUST, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE WARM TO BE ACCURATE.

Chek fuel filter first, and replace if it hasn't been changed in a while. Then if it still has problems starting, check ignition module. Make sure all grounds are tight and making good contact as well.

No start problem

Could be no fuel to the injectors or no spark at the plugs. Or maybe the "Main Relay" or a fuse to the relay.
You could try to see if you have these one at a time.
Hope this helps.

Good Luck.

Have a 04 excursion 6.0L diesel. have been driving it with no problems then after a rain storm it will not start. Batteries are fine, no fuses blown, but won't crank. Ideas?

When say wont crank..Do you mean it will turn over but not start,,or do you mean it wont even turn over..I work on 6.0 liters all the time,,and you really need a scanner to see if your FICM has gone bad or other electronics...Plus your high pressure oil pump could have went out..They dont really give you much warning on them engines when something goes out..

it wants to start but couldn`t because it sparks in wrong time
