That doesnt mean squat!!! I had a ez go bad, thought it was the pressure sensor, that was the code it threw, sounded just like that truck, ended up being a conector bent in the plug on the ez.

Also wyocat, if rail pressure comes up, go ahead and plug the fca back in while at idol, if its the fca it will start running rough again

If you unplug the fca the RP will go to max(over 23kpsi)Do not let it run but for long enough to see if the RP will go that high and then kill it or you might be needing a rail relief valve as well!

Unplug the fca and get in the truck and start it.The RP should go well over 20kpsi.Just make sure to shut it off quickly if it does.If it doesn't go high(rp)then you need to be looking at the fca or the RP sendor.

You either need to gamble on buying a RP sensor or go to the dealer and hook a DRB to it.It only takes a couple of minutes.Plug the DRB to the OBD port and crank truck.It will show what the ecm is calling for,what the RP sensor is reading and control voltage to the fca.Real quick to determine what is amiss with your truck.Good luck with what ever course of action you take.

Your smoke just looks kinda white in the video.Thats the way mine did when it was screwed up.My problem just ended up being electrical connection.Did you ever get any dielectric grease?Check all the pins in the connector visually for any signs of corrosion or bent pins.
