pickup won't stay running. Shuts itself off.
My pickup won't stay running, its getting fuel but its like its not getting enough to where it shuts itself off. Could it be an injector not firing? And how many orings are on an injector? I'm thinking of replacing all my orings on all my injectors. Any ideas where to look for why my pickup wont stay runnning?
If one injector wasn't firing, the truck would still run, just on 7 cylinders. Your truck will run on one bank if it had to... Sounds like your issue is elsewhere... 6 orings on each injector...Well technically 5 with a copper ring...
If you can get the truck to idle, you can check fuel pressure on the side of the fuel bowl. If you have fuel pressure, I wouldn't worry about it being fuel related. A lack of fuel pressure will not cause the truck to shut down. The computer doesn't know what fuel pressure you are running because the system is mechanical. Sounds like it might be oil related...
Well I was looking at my pickup and decided to take a look at my injection control pressure sensor and its cracked. So now I got to buy that part for my pickup. Hoping it have it soon so I can run a scanner on it and see if that solves the problem or if there is more to come.

I doubt that is your problem, as the truck will simply defer to stored maps. However I believe you are on the right track as far as ICP related.
There is only a few things that will keep a psd from running, ICP is one of the biggest. power to the PCM and any IDM issues is the others.
