Can anyone help with my truck not having boost? It is like it goes to sleep. When I start it in the mourning or afternoon after work it feels like it goes to sleep.
I have to turn the ignition off 2-6 times and it will run like it should, as I am driving down the road. Sometimes when I do this the fuel guage will not register any fuel and the low fuel indicator goes off. But the dam thing runs.
I replaced the ASD relay and was dissapointed that I have the same proplem.
I have a 2002 2500 with an Edge comp box stage 2 injectors and the FASS fuel pump with 14 lbs preasure. This is also the 6 speed trans.
I have explained this problem to people when I got new injectors and again when they replaced my power chip from Halsey Machine with the Edge box, yet I still experience the same problem, and I also replaced the turbo.
any suggestion will be greatly appreciated, Thank you.

No power. When it started I would be driving on the Interstate and all of a sudden I could barley get past a semi. That is when i found out that when I turned off the ignition and then turned it on again with the clutch out it ran like it should, for awile.
In 6th gear the boost is almost nothing.

I was afraid that it would be a majior problem. Your offer to bring it up is greatly appreciated. I am in Indiana.
I was in your area a few weeks back for the Sturges MC Rally, beautifull country and I will be back but now,I am back to work untill next time.
I want to thank you for your help and I have learned a few things I did not know.

holler if ya need help............I think I know of some tech articles on this.....heheheheeee

 

[RRILEY]

Are you saying I need a new injector pump, or can I replace the electronics inside?
I would like some tech articles if you would direct me in the righe direction to get them.
You make me worried like this is a job where I need 3 assistants.

yer internal electronics cannot be replaced at home....it takes experts and well over 100k worth of equipment to overhaul the VP.......sorry but you need a new IP

try resetting the ECM after retrieving the codes the (on fords) ECM can be reset by disconnecting the battery the touching the + and - battery cables together for 30 seconds minimum than reconnect the batteries. than i would drive the truck for a few days than get the new codes if any re-appear. (i have used this trick to fix many of ford's electrical gremlins)

I just checked on a new IP and it's around eleven hundred bucks and about three hundred for the install. Ouch
