I told you EXACTLY what you needed to do.

How was that not helping?


Its been documented for 10 years now - that you MUST have a fuel pressure guage on a second gen 24V.

Negatory good buddy. You have to have your owm gauge permanently mounted some place that you can see it at times while driving. It's not uncommon at all when a lift is just going bad to have 15psi while yer idling and checking pressure but put a load on the truck and it falls to 0psi. They may even just at random fall to 0 and you need to know as soon as this happening or your gonna be replacing another VP.

Nobodies tryin to be sarcastic at all. These 24V VP trucks are sweet but there is certain things you have to have with em. We've all been there done that and would like to help keep you from havin to go there. I'm on my 3rd VP.
