2000 stock with juice w/attitude

ok so im pulling my friends broke down truck, all of a sudden my dies. The fuel pressure warning doesnt beep or anything, just dies. I try to start it up and nothing. so i get it back to my house bleed it where the banjo bolt is, fuel comes out. the lift pump runs and shoots fuel (lift pump prolly has 10,000 miles) but it seems quieter when you first turn the key to the crank posistion. I try to pull the codes, there is none jus pdone. it will now try to start but it wont quite start. it said I had a 1/4 tank (yea i no too low) but i put more in it (5 gallons). what should i do????

I would suspect the VP44 injection pump has failed. They do not necessarily issue trouble codes when they fail.

 

is there anyway to test and make sure of that?

Do your elec door locks work ??

 

yea.... why

 

Just wondering mine wouldnt start one day and it was caused by the keyless entry system, I found that out when i got fed up from it not firing for a week and i locked the doors and it wouldnt lock, Checkthe fuse in the dash I.O.D under the lil plastic cover.

 

do you have any fuel at the injectors? loosen a couple of the lines where they connect at the head, have sombody try to start the engine... you should see a pretty good amount of fuel squirting out. if all you get is dripping, your injection pump is probably gone
