2012 F350 6.7 powerstroke issue

What would cause an overboost condition?

[Woodchuck]

Something like a waste gate not opening when it should. There are several things that can cause that.

If you're running a boost gauge you can watch it and see if she's making too much boost.

Like Woodchuck said, get it cleaned up with a new clamp and go rally on it a little bit and make sure it stays together.

Ha! Go rally a 8000# rig!  I will try it out, just wanted to make sure no damage could be done.  I have driven it over 100 miles since it happened without any trouble.  I have been pretty easy on it though.

Sometimes, ya just gotta send it.

That happened to me before but tightened down said clamp and all is good. Hasn't happened in over a year now.

What’s the pipe for?🤔

The pipe was obviously for the power since when it popped off he lost all power....



    

Pour some DEF on it?😬


Geez I forgot all about those power pipes on power strokes.🤪

2012s are pretty smart , my guess is if it over boosted it would set a code. i've seen duramax blow them of with a tune and exhaust on top of intake . could be the clamp was just a bit loose. once they pop off clean and dry the tube and pipe with brake clean , a bit of oil will be a issue . I would also go around and check all the rest of the clamps too .
