lost power after it was in the shop
lost power after it was in the shop
I had two injectors go out #1,3 had them replaced with wiring harnesses under warranty. When i leave the dealer it only had about half the power it had when it went in the shop. i called and told them and they said it was fine when they drove it. i came home and on the way the water in fuel light came on. i drained the can and changed the filter. there was some water in the can. about a ounce are two. but no change. so i drain 99% of the tank refilled with new fuel and changed the filter again and there was little more water not as much but still no change even when i turn on the edge there is no difference. even on level five there's not black smoke at all. it like i don't even have a box on it. HELP FIRST THE FAN NOW THIS I"M READY TO TRADE IT IN BUT IT"S PAID FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe you just have some bad fuel and thats it. I sure hope that the fan and this problem you have now isn't really going to make you trade it in. You will never own a vehical that won't have problems.


i didn't have much water in the tank. if what little water i had damage all the injectors and the cp3 then i don't know how any of this truck keep running. isn't that what the can is for to keep the water out of the motor?? so what would you look at first cp3 or injectors.

I would check for max flow from cp3 and also pull FCA look for any rust or corrosion. If actual fuel pressure reading fluctuates more than +/- 500 psi from the set point, then replace the Fuel Conrol Actuator (FCA). NOTE: After the acutator is removed, check for debris or corrosion on the FCA. If debris or corrosion is found, replace the entire Fuel Injection Pump. Disconnect high pressure fuel line from CP3 and install hose. Place end of hose into container. Crank over engine until you have fuel at end of hose then Crank the engine for three (3) 10 second intervals (Note: This will give you 30 total seconds of flow time. These are broken into 3 separate intervals to prevent damage to the starter). Fuel flow specification s based on engine cranking speed. If you do not collect the stated amount of fuel in 30 seconds, replace the pump:
Minimum fuel pump flow at 150 rpm cranking speed is 70mL
Minimum fuel pump flow at 200 rpm cranking speed is 90mL
Minimum fuel pump flow at 150 rpm cranking speed is 70mL
Minimum fuel pump flow at 200 rpm cranking speed is 90mL
