From: North Carolina or Kentucky. Take your pick
Check lift pump pressure at filter housing or at vp44 if has shrader. Replace lift pump if won't carry at least 8-10 PSI at idle. Just not worth taking chance if has not been replaced recentlly.
If VP44 pump runs and has no codes your chances are good. Occasional stalling or dead pedal is another indication of VP failure in progress.
