Rampuller,

It might be the VP44 injection pump. Read THIS ARTICLE and THIS ARTICLE

Blue Chip carries a VP44 tester which tests for a failed injection pump.

Also, how much fuel pressure was the truck running?

Do you have the pump wire hooked up? from what I understand injector pumps if they are going to fail as a result of the pump wire typically do it within the 1st several days of hookup. Either way you are going to have diagnos what your beast ain't gettin.<br>Tim

I'm gonna have to agree with Kent on this one... If your pump wire is in fact hooked up, sounds like your VP44 may be (.)(.) up. :'( :'(

Take it to a reputable diesel shop &amp; have it diagnosed. I would definitely try &amp; stay away from the ******* if you can.
