The BD box has not been on since the last time I checked codes.

There is more to it than a stumble and a code. The truck hasn't felt right for a while. Hard to explain but something isn't the same.

Nothing has been right since you put a turbo on that is actually working. I say go back to your busted turbo and 14's and enjoy a better running truck ;D.

Or it could be an incompetent operator. In that case put it in park, take off your seat bealt, get out, and let someone else drive it.

Re:VP44?

I can take the box out and it still does it.

The stumble or miss is also there where the truck is under a load, with or without the box.

Battering Ram,

Bring your row boat up here and beat this "incompetent operator" then. ;D

Take it easy... just trying to cheer you up before you find out you have a spun main bering, bent rod, and a blown headgasket .

Re:VP44?

I noticed yesterday that injector lines for #2 and #4 have a thump in them. All other lines have more of a buzz. #2 and #4 are bolted together.

I keep thinking its the VP44 headed for a slow death.

What else could it be?

Thanks to ATS for getting my truck in and out in a hurry.

Re:VP44?

When you turned the pump by hand 4 ports would squirt fuel and the other 2 just dribbled.

Wonder how long its been like that.

I noticed that the exhaust drone I had between 75 and 80 mph is a lot less noticable.
