Usually low rpm misfires after some miles on vehicle are the injector tips. But another easier to fix proplem is water in the diesel fuel. Water in vapor form = good. Water in liquid form= bad. I ended up putting a fass pump on. "Free" HP (No engine mechanical change) it takes all the water and air out of the fuel. I am amazed at how much water removal- I drain every fuel fill and it is over one quart per tank on interstate in summer. Just think before that it went through the engine. My truck starts way quicker, better mileage, maybe more power, but best of all - easy filter changes. A win win situation. Besides worn tips I think you have water residue. And I almost forgot - in the fuel filter stock on my truck - I never found ANY water. Good luck my friend.

Could also be the VP44 or the APPS. Need to find out if there are any codes. |

rather than rebulding the stock injectors just get a set of 275RV they come stock in the cummins they run in the motorhomes, and they are great with a stock turbo and only around the 300 dollar mark, for bran new

and even though I have run a quart of power service through it since buying the truck I probably havent burned through 35 gallons yet. From all indications this thing is getting 20mpg easily- around town too.MXTUNER1 exactly which FASS setup did you go with? |
