Way too many days ago my truck pooped out on me, shut off in the middle of an intersection, cranked it back up, idled to a side street, towed it into work, scanned it with the DRB- I have the code written somewhere.

Never gave me the famous timing failure code however I had two injection pump codes, one came up "no information" and the other suggested it was the injection pump control module. I've had bad fuel 3 times in the past 2 months, I beat the crap out of my truck & have an Edge that taps into the pump wire.. so i figured VP finally died on me. I ordered my Industiral, just came in.

Went out to start the truck today and it runs but like hammered dog sh!t. If I give it any throttle or put it in gear it goes no where, not even an idle forward- total deal pedal like I don't even have one. I realized I skipped over the entire possibility of an accelerator pedal position sensor :doh:. Could that be it even with the IP codes? Before I rip all my fuel lines off and dig in.. any input?
 
APPS hasn't effected idle in my experience. Sounds like the psg took a dump or you have broken a hard part inside the pump...possibly both.

You have an aftermarket lift pump?



______how the hell did a girl that knows chit get in here and I not be notified? Yall are slacking.
 
Yeah im a doofies. I thought about that right after I posted it. Why would throttle affect idle haha.. duh. I'm runnin an air dog but I've had that thing chock full of water with the bad fuel a few times. At this point I hope its the IP cause mudfest is in two days & I have to get her running! :(
