I drive a 2003 6.0 excursion ,,I recently broke down in georgia ,,a p s mechanic north of Atlanta ,,
the truck got progressively harder to start ,,the mechanic told me i needed an IPR VALVE ,,,THE one he took out had dirt on the end , and it had a plain round end ,,,the one he put in had a peace sign in the end ,,,WILL IT WORK ??
2ND ,,ATLANTA took out an rectangle screen that was tore up ,,and put in a new one,,and said he needed to replace the high pressure oil pump ,to get it to start ,,,so i said do it so i can go home ,,,he did it , and it still would not start,,so after 2000 dollars ,,i have a dead truck ,,i towed it back to FLA and had my mechanic look at it ,,,he said it was a 6'' high pressure hose under the rt. valve cover ,,thats it,,, please help I don,t know who to trust,??
the first guy wanted the first 2000 cash ,,and another 4500 to get it to run ?? will i be ok with the IPR VALVE HE PUT IN ,??
MY GUY SAID IT WAS ALL HOG WASH ,IT ONLY NEEDS A HOSE,??

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME GEORGE JR.
