Replace lift pump and injection pump an enjoy your new truck

 

2,000 is a steal by the way. I'll give ya 1500 for it right now since it isn't running :P

 

SO YOU THINK THE INJECTION PUMP IS DONE ALSO????? I VE ALREADY CALCULATED INTO MY BUDGET BUT IF IT STILL HAS LIFE THATS AN EXTRA GRAND TO DO OTHER MODS BUT IF IT IS DEAD WHAT KIND OF VP SHOULD I GET

HAHA ILL PASS IM VERY HAPPY WITH THE TRUCK AND WILL BE EVEN HAPPIER WHEN ITS UP AND RUNNING

 

Get a SO pump and a airdog an a fuel pressure gauge and go from there.......btw welcome to the site

 

thanks man just the so pump then already got airdog 100 and edge juice with attidude cts tried to kill two birds with one stone with the edge also got s&b air intake so with the symptoms im describing you think its the ip and lp

 

SO pump, the pump that came stock on your truck, is capable of fueling to 600+ so no need to go away from a good stock so pump for a bigger pump

 

cool so what would be another good mod for me once i get up and running since i already have exhaust air intake airdog & edge
