How to troubleshoot a CP3
If I accelerate real hard or if I put a load on the truck it acts like it runs out of fuel. I let off the accelerator and ease back into it and it runs fine then. If I just drive the truck around normal with no load it runs fine. I've already replaced the lift pump and problem is still there.
Are you running a programmer? even a fresh lift pump won't keep up with a decent tuner. How fresh is the fuel filter? I would get a gauge on there and see what the FP is and also hook up a scanner and look at rail pressure.

Thanks for the replys... I will be adding gauges soon... here is a little more information.. My truck is bone stock as far as the powertrain goes.... the only mod that I have made is the new LP and it is a FASS 95/95-1008.... Same problem before and after the install of the FASS.... Are there any sponsors on here that sale gauges? thanks again...
So I guess my next step is to get gauges to diagnose the problem...
What do yall recommend on gauges...???? Install a permanent LP gauge and use a programmer to check RP????? or what???
Eric do yall sale gauges? and what setup do you recommend??

I found this in my Service Manual.....
checking FCA...
"After removal, inspect FCA for corrosion or
damage. Shake the FCA and listen for a rattle. If
FCA does not rattle, replace it."
What else can I do to trouble shoot the FCA?
Can I check the resistance of it or anything else?
Is there anyway to troubleshoot the relief valve other than monitoring fuel pressure?
