My fire station has this POS 05 e450 6.0l ambulance. It has been into the dealer multiple of times and they say nothing is wrong. Here is the problem, when the motor is cold it won't take the throttle response. Meaning if you start giving it gas the truck start lugging like it has a horribly clogged fuel filter or an injector is trashed. The truck will slowly get up to speed, and you have to be light on the throttle or it will lug. IF you want the tranny to shift you have to let off the throttle and slowly give it gas again for it to shift. This occurs every time the motor is cold until warm. Once the motor is in operating temps, the truck runs great and has no lugging issues or shifting problems.
60k on the odometer and no idiot lights are on.
Anyone have any ideas since no one has a clue what could be going on.
The only thing the dealership found was a jewel plastic bag in the turbo. Dont ask how it got in their because no one knows.
