Torqued_Up Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Any of you guys catch this? I wonder why only the 2005 models are supposedly affected. I hear complaints that there are 2004s doing this. I am guessing that this is the same as the complaint of the turbo flutter and lack of power while towing up hill or steady throttle. Quote: TSB 06-3-11 BUCK/JERK STEADY THROTTLE OR SLIGHT TIP IN - 6.0L Publication Date: February 3, 2006 FORD: 2005 F-Super Duty ISSUE: Some 2005 F-Super Duty vehicles equipped with a 6.0L engine may exhibit a buck/jerk condition in Low (L), first (1st), second (2nd), and third (3rd) gear in manual transmission vehicles, or in manual 1st, manual 2nd, or in tow-haul mode in first (1st) or second (2nd) on automatic transmission vehicles. This concern occurs anywhere from 1800-2500 RPM at steady throttle or slight tip in. Concern will be more evident under a load, or while pulling a trailer. This concern is more noticeable in manual transmission equipped vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torqued_Up Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 So do believe there are additional calibration updates to come? And since you seem to know things do you know why Ford doesent publish calibration information any more? You know, those charts that used to be on the PST website listing the cals with part numbers, dates and what they address??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torqued_Up Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 This is an old thread but the latest FICM flash seems to be a broad application! At least we were told the what, how and why for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I am starting to wonder if we haven't come close to the end of any new calibrations for the 6.0 unless they are going to come out with the mother of all flashes to fix everything and make them run like they had mechanical pumps. In my humble opinion most trucks are running well unless they are owned by stubborn know it alls that think reflashes are evil and wrong... oh, and the sticking EGR valves and turbos. Can't for get them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
