Sadly, I think it is time for a new IP

[saint_nick3]

For about six months now my truck has had a hot start problem. I can pretty much set my watch on how long I can let it sit before it will not start. I have been carrying a gallon of water with me, because the water trick still works to start the truck. Trickle a quart of water over the IP and she will fire up.

The truck is not showing any codes, the lift pump has good pressure, and the problem only happens when hot.

Any suggestions?

I think you have your diagnosis.

Check lift pump pressure first.

I just had to hear it from someone else. I will put the gauge on it and test the fuel pressure first. I guess I need to start looking for a place to buy one. Anybody have any experience with the Pensacola Diesel rebuilt injector pumps?

Ive heard bad things about their injectors but i dont know anything about there ips

Once Pensacola Fuel was top line, quality has slipped of late due to some cost cutting measures at the shop especially when owners decided to start using overseas sourcing of some parts, if you can contact Diesel Pro directly (Mike) let him know your plight he might be able to work one in with a little extra attention to detail.
