2005 ford f-350 super duty truck with a defect in the ford 6.0 liter diesel engine**cc the consumer stated while towing a 10,000 pound fifth wheel trailer up a steep grade, nearing the top of an 8800-foot summit, he experienced a sudden, total and complete engine failure. It was explained to the consumer by a ford technician that the diesel engine uses both electric impulses and oil pressure to open the injectors. The oil system for the injectors is separate from the main lubrication system in the engine and runs at about 3000 psi. There is some internal plumbing for the oil system that has rubber connecting hoses and seals that are prone to leaks, but in the consumers case total failure. As soon as the oil pressure is insufficient to open the injectors, the engine just stops. The consumer stated on a second trip, one of the turbo hoses blew off.
