I would change all filters for the fuel system including the fass might be a bad batch of fuel. I have had some strange stuff happen with the stock filter , it messis with the shifting and over all performance of the eng. This has happened with new filters after a few miles.This would be where I would start. Mine with the PPE and defueling for shifts starts acting up after bout 50% life on stock filter.

I agree with these guys, change both filters, and shim the fuel rail. The Stealth 2 demands plenty of fuel and is capable of tripping that CEL.

The truck computer says the fuel filter still has 60% life left.

I had read that you could clean the sensor and I should have bookmarked it because now I can't find it. What about shimming the sensor? I found an article about this and will go back and read the whole thing later.

The question is - does this sensor control the pressure output or only tells you when it's too low? I bought a set of the factory repair manuals and I guess it's time to crack them open.

Any input will be appreciated!!

I wouldn't rely on the DIC to tell you when to change the filter. I believe the ecm goes by mileage not actual filter life. I would be willing to bet you have a filter that is getting a little tired. I have had filters junk within a couple thousand miles.

I have an 06 LBZ with ppe hot2, intake, full 5inch exhaust, boost controler and the fass 200gph and it runs right at 15psi and no matter if the programmer is turned all the way up or if the truck is stock, it always pops the low fuel pressure p0087 code when my truck builds around 20psi of constant boost. It will pop the code much sooner when the truck is building around 40psi but thats not very often. I was thinking the regulator was sticking on the cp3 but it is not. Any other ideas?

it could be the FPRV popping, it would need shims to fix that.

thanks to all
