Hey Guys,
I run a 2004 International 4300 Forestry Bucket truck for my tree business, powered by the DT466 and an Eaton 6-speed.
The truck is really clean, with 140,000 miles on it.
Recently, I’ve started having intermittent loss of power issues. I’ll be driving the truck at any rate of speed, and I completely lose power, like someone turned the key off. The brake pressure sensor light and alarm come on immediately, as well as a yellow ‘ENGINE’ light.
Anyone had a similar experience, or have some things in mind to look for?
Thanks

Update:
We took the fuel tank off and cleaned it out, replaced the pre-filter screen and fuel filter.
There wasn’t an alarming amount of sediment in the tank, and the issues have continued. -

On You Tube HoglundBusCo has a ditty on ICP Pressure Testing and Repair. They also have some other good information. If you spend some time there you will understand what you are working on and where to start.
Wire problems on push in connectors is a common problem. -
Ongoing problem!
