Need help truck won't start vp44?
Truck was driving fine, it sat for about a day. I started it in the morning an it started up normal and ran good for about 30 seconds and then it started sputtering and stalled. Can't get it started now. Replace the fuel filter and my lift pump is fine but I'm not sure and I hope its not my vp please help me. Any help is appreciated I don't understand how my vp44 would just go in a day after working fine. Thanks in advanced

Crack you injectors I think a 3/4 wrench fits em, thats how 60% of them pumps go, they just give up and say bye bye. Are you sure your fuel pump is good, and how often do you change your filter, an old filter will restrict flow to the Injection Pump. I learned after today that 15K Miles is not a suitable point to change my Fuel filter, made a world of diffrence...

Well I have a fuel pressure gauge but it doesn't fit on my truck after the snubber valve and banjo bolt and sending unit so I never put it on. Other than that I don't know how to check my fuel pressure. Any ideas? I cracked my 1 3 and 4 injectors and very little fuel came out of the #4 line. I'm going to crack all 6 tomorrow and see if anything comes out of any of them. As for my pump since I cannot check the fp I drained my filter housing and bumped the starter and it filled back up so I am assuming my lift pump is still fine. And I changed my filter yesterday hoping it would fix it but maybe I'm too late. Thanks guys
