With a lot of things going haywire, you just might have a bad ground. Ground straps are cheap.

I changed the fuel filter last night and it was clean, engine will start if I pull it and pop the clutch but will not idle and misses a little throughout the rpm band.

TMTT,

There was a posting on the 2g about the VP @ 750$ from a place in TX. They supply the dealers, or so its said, and sounds like you may want to keep this in mind.



Hope its KNOT but... ... .



SOTSU!!

PS: got another person with a "new" 99 wonton and he has low power when pulling + a leak from the booster in the cab. Its an auto and hope its only the lp and not the vp + the booster. We havent been able to get-2-gether on working on it yet. But if any ideas - PM me with them.

Funny you say that Ben, There has been quite a bit of chatter and well I just may pick one up in the event of Duuum da dum dum.

CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAP! It started its stupid crap again I am gonna hafta park it and fix it when I have time

Worse than ever today. It's a tough call. IF I let it cool down and discon and reconnect the apps it'l run strong ... ... for a lil while.



if it's the apps it would cut out at a certain pedal position right? When the engine shuts off and the motor is coasting because I am in lockup I can smash the pedal to the floor or even flutter it inbetween and the truck just sputters and surges. If I go to ZERO with the pedal for a sec and gradually squeeze it on I can somewhat maintain speed.



:EDIT: Btw Ben where is that place as I think th end result is gonna be.

Sorri it took so long for my reply but was outta town with the SMOKEY Balloon.



Anyhows, to answer TMTT's msg to me and also give the info out, the site is: www.cumminsstuff.com for the VP and other parts. This info I got from one of the other forums. It is in Granbury, TX (Barry can probably ck it out if we have any problems with them) and according to the other thread, the VP is 750$ with a 250 core charge.



TMTT can tell us if its changed or any other info he gathers. Got a "possible" problem with a 99 that a person I just met has and it "sounds like" a LP but it could develop into the VP, so will keep eye on this info.



SOTSU!!

EDIT: PS they also carry ONAN parts for the RVr's.
