Those lift pumps are prone to fail.
10 psi at idlle is not enough. 60 psi is about right at higher RPMs.
Something wrong with fuel delivery.
Could be pump, or could be related to pressure regulator, maybe even cloged up strainer on your regulator.
Good luck.

Yeah.. I think next steps are to replace the fuel pump, change the oil (making sure there is a good diesel oil in the case), and clean out the regulator and screen very well...
It will be this weekends project.
Took the truck for a drive and it seems to be running ok. Wonder how it will fell with better pressure? Anyway.. I'll update the post after the next actions and let everyone know how the old beast is doing..
