What I thought was an apparant dead pedal issue may be more. Working for the last several months through a intermittant dead pedal, I finally replaced the APPS. Two days later, same ittermittant issue. You can always correct the issue by up-shifting and accelerating, but while having the issue, you can do anything you want with the accelerator pedal and nothing will happen. I have cleared P0216 many times now with my scanner. Am I missing any other tricks other than a new pump? Pisser really.....only 72,000 miles. And yes, pierced wire since 17,000 miles. And yes, FASS with 17 psi since new.

 

I suspect you have found the final nails for VP44 cofin.
