I have a Job 1 2008 F 350 ps We just got it back from the shop on thursday for a woooing sound which they said it was a coolant pump and they replaced it.
We drove it very minamal on friday and saturday ,on sunday morning my wife went to work and heard a loud explosion is how she described it the engine light came on and the truck had no turbo gage reading and a loud suction noise ,the truck would rev up but only go about 30 mph and rpms were about 3000 rpms with it floored , and the transmission was not shifting when it was supposed to .
any Ideas of what this could be ?

SOUNDS LIKE ONE OF THE INTERCOOLER HOSES BLEW OFF

Yep, easy fix.

what would cause this to happen ,and would this be a rubber connection sleeve to a alluminum pipe and the other side connected to what looks like a radiator and would this cause the engine lite to go on trans not to shift and turbo gage not to work, also where can I find some info on whats under the hood something that describes all componants thats under hood ie; what and where is the egr what it looks like ,the turbos,intercooler and so on and what they do ,is there such a book and where can i find it .

Yep. I was going to say that when they replaced your coolant pump, they probably just left one of the hoses loose during reassembly.

they probably had them off when they worked on it and didnt tighten and or not put them back on correctly.......check this link for infoPowerstroke 6.4L manual

Yes harley that link gives alot of info on the engine very informative thanks, well got my truck back and they replaced the clamp to the charge air tube we asked why it happened but they gave a reply that its under a lot of preasue ,Dah , but what was the causes no reply ,I believe they forgot to tighten the clamp or they never put the clamp back on ,there was no clamp on the tube when i looked under the truck ,is it possible for the clamp to just blow off .,
