Almost home....Dead on highway
 
Drove my truck all day. On the homestretch...pay the last toll (6 mile from home), the truck stalls and now won't start.

I had these mods done most recently...150 hp industrial injectors, industrial injection HR-VP44, ARP head studs, Valve clearances checked/adjusted. Prior to that, Air dog 150 and SBC Con fel. I've already had a 4" straight through and open air intake. Edge Comp.

I got the truck back about 6 weeks ago, I already had an issue with the truck running poor when I get heavy on throttle. Edge tells me that extreme cold has a factor. So I've been not so aggressive with driving it.

today...55 degrees, running all day long. Driving decent, not applying full throttle. Almost home and the truck stalls when i get off the last exit. ?

no funky burning smells, no extreme temps on guages, no smoke, zip.
the truck just stopped running and it won't start. i can crank it but will not fire up.

truck is at shop where i had the work done originally. waiting to see what the deal is.

no codes either.....?

anyone with any ideas?

When my VP started to die then did, I never had any codes. Things I would check right off: Fuel pressure and connection to the VP. 73Moparman has a very good troubleshooting guide for the VP.

24V? What year?

ECM have power? Check batteries and cables?

Cranking but no start is fuel not getting to cylinders....

2001, 24V, 6sp.
I personnally cleaned, scraped and retightened the battery cables over the bitter winter.

No fuel to cylinders...?
Well, all those components are essentially brand new. Industrial injectors 150 HP, Industrial HR VP44....new 6 weeks ago. Air dog 150...6 months old.

I'll see if the shop had time to look at my truck today.

What it felt like was when the fuel lines froze during the single/neg temps.

thanks for the input gents.

~97K miles.

fuel level was ~1/4 tank. apparently, the way the fuel moves in the tank with my 1/2" feed, it could not pick up effectively what was in there....causing lack of fuel to burn.

they just cracked the feed and the injectors at head, bled it all. fired up.


thanks for your feedback.
