| Description of the problem | I own a 2004 ford f250 sd diesel and on 10/11/08 took a trip to sante fe nm which approx 55 miles and from what they tell me a fuel injector stuck and let fuel into the cyl thus ruining the engine. I believe that this related to the shop replacing the turbo which blew up into pieces and went into the exhaust and possibly into the fuel system jamming up the injector causing the damage. This was the second turbo with in the last 3000 miles. This vehicle has only 35400 miles i feel the engine should be covered by warranty due to miles on vehicle and also the original warranty not even a month past. |
