    6.5 dead in water, please help

    Just to pile on my 2 cents. My truck did something very similar, (loss of power/died under load, white smoke and could barely get it to rough idle if I punched throttle, wasn't throwing any codes). I swapped to known good PMD, redid the fuel filter and fuel lines with clear lines to check for...

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Got it through Ott's Friction Supply, a HD brake/truck place in Portland, Oregon. Have family that works there and have worked with them in the past mostly, was my first call. Ended up being about 300 bucks. Cheaper than a new IP pump I spose.

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Final Update: Tried washing the bad OS in acetone and it didn't really fix the problem, maybe helped some, or maybe I imagined it. Installed the new OS and just eyeballed/threw the dice on the position. I felt confident it was in the right place. Cleared the codes, (which there was a mess of...

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Howdy guys, thanks for the help/replies. Bison: I assume you meant optical sensor not oil pressure sensor? Or I could just be getting my acronyms mixed up. WW: But unplugging the optical sensor does smooth it out, like I said, so I think I got the air out of the system and that the OS is...

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Update: A piece of clear tubing on the return line, (the little loop right behind the oil filler cap) shows no air bubbles while running(unless they are so small/fast that I cant see them), but when I shut it off some bubbles came up from the return manifold and floated in the top of the tube...

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Is this the best place to check it? It sure is the easiest. Lift pump is new in the last 5k miles. How do you get at the tank pickup assembly? Cut a hole or remove the bed is what I am afraid you are going to say. If you don't crack the line at the injector to remove air do you just run it...

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Whew, sorry about the wall of text, just remembered something else. Checked codes with a paperclip and only showing a repeating code 12.

    Bad Chuggle/Fishbite Problems

    Howdy Guys, long time lurker but first time poster. Thanks for having such a great forum for 6.5 owners, it was part of the reason I own one. Now to my problem. I have a 1995 2500 6.5T that I bought about 5 months ago. Great condition with 100k miles on it, all stock except for a Banks...
