    I don't know about fuel heater but the headlights will dim when the grid heaters cycle, so I'm fairly sure their working.

    Truck still did same thing after picking it up from the diesel shop on Friday. I took the IAT sensor out and it looked clean and I had a ohm reading of around 24k on my work bench according to the chart I found that should be about right. It had no codes. Do you guys think this could be a bad...

    It does idle rough. When you say ECM are you talking the truck not something with the pump. It's not jelling I run mixed fuel and it will do this even after I drive it then let it sit for a few hours in the cold. It will fill up a parking lot with white smoke that burns your eyes.

    I have a 2001 with 185,000 miles and have been battling a rough running and tons of white smoke on start on cold mornings problem. Late last winter I took it into a diesel shop to have the problem checked out and they changed the injectors, the next week I had a problem with the truck not...

    My truck was running rough and smoking a ton earlier this winter and to make a long story short I had new lift pump, rv275s, and vp44 installed in 4 wks time. Now after a couple 2,000 miles it seems to be doing the same roughness and smoking as it was before. I had a shop in central MN do the...

    Do you guys think that that was my starting issue or are they going to find an injector issue to.

    The injection shop just called and said they checked pressures and they got a code p0216. They didn't retorque the inj. tubes or clear the code and see if it comes back, I asked them to do that and let me kow. Am I looking at a vp44 or should I be looking at something else.

    The LP was leaking externally. I thought the same thing with the throttle but two of the three times that I struggled to start it I had cranked the engine alot and when I opened the throttle it started instantly? I have it back at the shop where I had the injectors installed so hopefully they...

    I looked around for an external leak, not a drop. The lope only seems to become noticeable when it gets to temp.

    I had a injection shop in St. CLoud, MN do the work. They were supposedly new bosch injectors and I don't know about the holders. I didn't seem to notice right away but I didn't drive it alot until the 12" of snow this last weekend. It seems to run good above idle.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Need Advice

    I just had rv275 injectors, a new lift pump, and valves set a week ago and now I have a 50-100rpm lope at idle, and the truck starts very hard. Used to touch the key and it was running, now it seems that I have to hold the foot feet down in order for it to start decent. It also seems to still...
