I'm stranded in Burley, Idaho as my lift pump just went out without notice tonight at 2am going west on I-84. I left Denver, CO at 11am yesterday and was heading to Ephrata, Washington.
My truck is a 2003 with 70,000 miles and Edge EZ. I was tooling along most of the day at 68mph for the 800 some-odd miles. I managed 19. 2 mpg with a lot of head wind and the rpms at 1850. The EZ was on setting 4 and I had two short burst to around 100mph to get away from some semi's that were riding my tail.
I changed my fuel filter at 55,000 miles and I use no additives or B20 bio-diesel... I've only put regular Diesel in since I've had the truck which was at 27,000 miles.
I didn't even get a warning light ahead of time... it just lost power and died and I coasted to the side of the road with my 2 year old sleeping in the back seat. I hope they're not back ordered like I hear... does anyone know someone with a spare lift pump that would work on my 03? I'm thinking FedEx!
Are there any good Diesel shops around Southern Idaho that could put a F. A. S. S. or AirDog system on my truck if it looks like I won't see a lift pump for 2 weeks...
I'm 800 miles from home! Call me at 303. 349. 1294 if you have any ideas... Is the closest Cummins parts dealer in Boise? (Just in cast the Dealership can't get one from Star anytime soon. )
