Attention: TDR Forum Junkies i bougt my truck last october with about 94000 miles and i have taken it up to about 107000 since then. I had Diesel Dynamics put a 4" system along with trans, egt, and boost gauges. I also added a KN intake kit Other than that it is stock
Yesterday (Friday the 12th) my check engine light came on and the truck started to run sluggish. I immediatly went to the dealer to have them pull the codes on it, but they were backed up and couldn't look at it until monday. So off I went to Autozone and had them pull code for me. I only had P1690 come up. I called the dealer and was able to have them look the code up for me. They said it was a general fuel system error. That is all they said. But they also mentioend I would be ok to drive and the engine would shut itself down before any serious damage would occur.
The check engine light goes out every few starts and the truck runs fine for about 15 minutes then on comes the light again and I am back to square one. Today I changed the fuel filter and the drove the truck around for about an hour. It did fine and I thought maybe my old filter(with about 7500 miles on it ) was just restricting flow. Now however the truck runs for about 1-2 minutes then just dies like it is out of fuel. I turn the engine over for about 10 seconds and then it fires rigth up again. It has done this latest thing about 4 times. I checked the purge valve on the fuel water seperator after it dies to see if any fuel was in the filter houseing and it just blows out air. I am fairly new to this fueling system, but I think the LP is bad???. If I understand it right the LP supplies the filter which in turn suppies the injector pump?? If this is wrong please help me.
The truck goes into the dealer on monday or tuesday depending on if they get an opening. I just want to have a little heads up about what might be going on.
Thanks a ton in advance
