If you are seeing low HPO is can be more than a IPR or HPOP.
Rarely do the HPOP go bad. They may get weak, but that is in the upper rpm's.
I agree with above statement. With the icp out the computer defaults to a specific psi in programing only. So it is basically guessing.
If you know someone with a scanner you can monitor the hpo while opening the ipr with a direct 12v signal. This will eliminate the ipr as a cause if the scanner sees the ipr fully open and there is a bunch of pressure.
If the IPR is stuck it could trick you.
What happened to me recently was a torn injector o-ring. I had one injector stealing the hpo from all the other injectors causing a no start, but it would start on ether. Many people knocked their heads against the wall on it. It was suggested here, but I discounted that due to the o-rings being replaced with-in 75K. Long story short pull a valve cover and see if your loosing alot of oil from one injector v/s the others.
