    '05 F250 Diesel intermittent turbo
    My '05 F250 diesel turbo doesn't kick in all the time! Does anyone have similar problems and what was the cure? Other than it not working all the time, it works well when it does engage. Thanks, Brad

    If you have not been using a full-synthetic diesel HDEO, the turbo may be coking up on you. This link may help:
