    2013 and hesitating from a stop

    To update: I purchased a BD Throttle 'Fooler' I think is the name... It has helped the issue tremendously. Do you all have any updates?

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Anatomy of an APPS - the SEQUEL!

    Question Gary, could a failing apps cause a misfire when at operating temp? Also my cruise acts funny- it you set it, it will gain like 7mph then slowly slow back down to the set speed. I have been told the misfire is either a bad injector(s) or a failing VP-44. I have plenty of fuel...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) 98 1/2 Misfire at idle only when at operating temp.

    To follow up, year ago when I was having this problem, I replaced the injectors with NEW bosch 300HP Marine injectors for the 5.9 ISB used in marine applications. I actually found the best price on amazon through thedieselstore.com. But then again, that was 5 years ago. I paid 300.00 US for six...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) 98 1/2 Misfire at idle only when at operating temp.

    Great. Thanks for the offer! I know I have adequate fuel pressure ( I have a fass ddrp, and a cater frame rail mounted pump). I am thinking it is more an injector problem myself, because it has gotten progressively worse which doesn't seem to insinuate a electronics issue (seems to me that if it...
