F-350 8-cyl Diesel

  • 157,000 miles
I have a Ford F-350 7.3L turbo diesel. While driving on the freeway at 70 mph., the check engine light came on and the engine power was reduced by half. After I pulled over the light went out and the engine returned to normal. Two weeks later the same thing happened again. I took it to a mechanic who found the fuel filter, the fuel pump, and the fuel pickup screens clogged with residue from the liner of the fuel tanks.

1. began smelling diesel fuel in cab. Then noticed drips on driveway. 2. went to sawgrass Ford on date below where I was told this is the fuel filter/water separator drain valve, and it is happening frequently and part is on back-order. They saw leak is almost a stream especially with engine running. 3. two weeks and no call from dealer.
