Here is the history, I replaced the LP thinking that was causing a hard start problem(twice in two months). It then ran out of fuel once and thats when I replaced the pump. Then the problem really started. When its cold I can drive it about 5 miles, it will hiccup at appox. 2100 rpm, it will do that several times and die. But when hot,the truck will start and idle but as soon as you accelerate, it blows the engine control #2 fuse. I thought it could be a shorted out wire but I'm unable to find any thing. Then I wondered is there any thing in the injection pump that could be ground out when hot, but not draw enough current until placed under load? I took it to a diesel shop and it showed no codes. They cut the wire to my power chip, charged me $80. 00 and said it was fixed. Darn Monkeys. Anyway, I'm running 14psi at fuel gauge and it seems to run good while idling. I'm stuck at this point. Any help at this point is appreciated. Kelly
