    When pulling loaded my 06 9400 with isx435 wont take off from a stop. As I release the clutch the truck will start to move but as soon as I let it off completely it will die unless I'm on and off the clutch till it gets moving. Once the truck is moving I don't have any issues. Also if I'm unloaded or bobtailing I don't have any issues at all. The clutch was just adjusted 2 weeks ago and the rebuilt clutch and transmission has a hundred thousand on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you in advance.

    So it didn't do this until after you had clutch adjusted?
    I know, not right away; but soon after.
    Have the same mechanic or someone familiar with this equipment - re-look the adjustment.

    I wonder if it could be something like a cam sensor that is going bad. Probably not if it doesn't do it in reverse.
    The reason I wonder is because I had a 95 Powerstroke (manual) that would do just as you describe.
     
    SAR Thanks this.

    I'm thinking it is adjusted too tight and doesn't get any "give" or slippage to get it moving.
    That's if you hear the motor not faltering, or stumbling, like it's an engine issue.
    Clutches except the ceramic puck ones all slip a little by design, to facilitate getting moving.
    Put the ceramic 3 puck one in a C-70 Rollback I had and it put your head thru the back window.
    It was either on of off, with no in-between. A real joy to drive. Scared the old ladies.

    Thanks for the suggestions, the clutch was deemed properly adjusted by a ta. Not that it means much from them lol. I am starting to wonder if its a fuel pump issue

    What help; we were all wrong!!!
    It is very difficult to do brain surgery in a moving truck, over the phone, with a dull fork.
