Strange Starting Problem
 
I can't isolate my problem, and since I have fixed many would be problems by just reading this forum I thought maybe you guys could help. A day ago I was driving my truck w/ no problems, I was in a HEB parking lot and I stalled it accidently by starting off in second. After I stalled it, the truck will not start now. Ive replaced the fuel filter, (the filter chamber primes every time I bump the engine to get the LP to pump, so not an LP problem). The engine cranks, the batteries are fully charged. It seems to be some sort of ignition problem..any suggestions? Thanks alot

2001 Dodge 2500 5.7L Cummins, 5spd manual 4x4
46000 miles LP replaced 6 months ago

Here is what you should do next. Measure the output pressure of the lift pump with a pressure gauge. Perhaps the pump is very weak and while it can fill up the filter bowl it is not generating any pressure. Next crack open a injector line to see if fuel is being injected. Check your fuses. Check for 12v at pin 7 of your VP44 terminal.
