they told me the lift pump was only pushing 4 psi i think and the told me the injector pump was putting out fuel shut off codes so would that be the pump itself or just the shut off valve. ever since i got the truck back from them it will not start at all. before i took it to them it would start and idle for a long time but now it wont even start. what did the do?

 

update went and got a injector pump and put it on myself so far i have 273 miles on it with no problems thanks to all of you who helped me and a big thanks to diesel bombers site if it wasnt here my truck would still be sitting THANKS ALL

 

Did you replace or fix the lift pump also? I think you should make sure your lift pump is working fine. It would still run without one but will put extra stress to the injector pump.

 

no my lift pump is running at min spec should i replace it what will it do if i dont

 

glad its working good

 

took me 2 days to tear down and put back together it was a job but i didnt have $800 for a mechanic and i can work on regular cars so i said what the heck cant be any worse well its about the same so now i know i can do it

 

i hear ya man. my truck was out for a month because i did all the preventitve manintance mods like that and injectors because i couldnt afford some one else to do it and i only worked on it at nights.

 

A bad lift pump will wear your injection pump much faster than if it's working at the correct capacity. You will also have hard starting because the injection pump has to draw fuel all by itself. SSDiesel has great parts also. The lift pumps they sell have worked great for me. Their pumps are remaned, but they're done by the best in the business and application bench tested to spec. I'm glad you're running again. Also keep your PMD out of the hot spots if you don't already. A lot of times the problems you had are just a toasted PMD. Hope you bought the pump and driver together and saved a few bucks!
