I had this problem with mine a few years ago. Kept it simple and replaced the battery. It'll have just enough current to turn the starter without a load but when it engages the motor there's too much internal resistance in the battery and won't spin the engine to start it. Try jumping it or...

Let me know the details $, might go that route. PM me if you want.

Well I've done both. When the vp44 goes it's all over, just like you turned off the key. Running out of fuel gives the stutter and finally shuts off, like yours did. After running empty it takes a bit to get em primed back to running order. Probably have to crack 3 or 4 injectors to speed up...

Well I did lose my vp44 about 10k miles ago. Wonder what makes them start being forgetful? The switch is kind of a pain in the ass but at least it works. Seems to run a little better too, pulls the enclosed sled trailer a little further up hill before having to down shift. Maybe I'll just...

No I haven't checked pressure, just have the light that comes on at 5psi. I thought the same thing at first and even bought a new pump, but since I direct wired the pump it has been flawless. When the low pressure light is on there is no voltage to the pump. Do the 01/02 ECMs have the same...

98 Dodge 24v Cummins, I have been having my low fuel pressure warning light come on intermittently. When cold I can start and run the truck as long and hard as I want on the freeway and no problems. After stopping or getting off the freeway the low pressure light starts coming on and won't go...

Is this the one that is just below Lion Rock? Goes from the pole patch road back up to the ridge, kinda goes along the bike trail? Headed there next weekend and was thinking about trying to find it.

I talked to the Diesel Doc there in Enumclaw, he said they send their pumps to a shop in Tacoma. I asked if it was H&H and he said it was.

I'm going through the same thing right now except mine is the 24v motor and my pump has completly failed. H&H is supposed to be a good shop. A few of the shops I have talked to send their pumps to H&H for a rebuild. The Power Shop in Enumclaw has stuff on shelf that they don't show on their...

So I just came across this thead and appears this may help with my problem. My truck is a 98 Dodge diesel and has 150k miles on it. I have replaced the wheel bearings, ball joints and got new tires. After getting the new ball joints and tires it felt like I was trying to drive after drinking...

The e-tec is a pretty solid power plant, but like you said the chassis can be hard to get the hang of. Cat's 800 is a proben power house and they seem to last forever so can't immagine them deviating from it. I do think it's dumb that they need 4 spark plugs to get it to meet emmissions. As...

Where were those^^^ at?

A few pics from this year and last

You might want to check befroe you go, but I believe most all the roads up there are closed to wheeled vehicles because of grooming for snowmobiles. May be able to run on the ranger station side though. Everything is covered in snow so I doubt you would be able to hit any trails, but if you...

Thanks ish, that's the info I was looking for.
