00' Quad Cab

Well guys I spoke up about the new VP and mine bit me in the ****.

Going up to help Aaron do his fuel line, pusher pump upgrade tonight and the truck just died. No warning at all.

After a couple of phone calls to the VERY helpful Hoss, Aaron showed up with his Smarty and pulled codes:

P1688 Fuel injection pump controller failure

P0254 ?

P1693 companion code

SO I am thinking it is VP time, I want to get the truck back on the road but if I have to replace the Vp I am thinking about just going with the HRVP and having the stepping stone for more power as I can afford.

So I need input and ideas, HRVP, Reliability? Good idea? Bad idea? Should a just pick up a used one to get me going? Or just find a new replacement?

I am at wits end already and it just happened tonight.

Any input is good input, thanks in advance.

And a VERY big thank you to HOSS.

O and a HUGE thanks to Aaron for everything, sorry you got soaked and I owe you!
