Teamroper...I also meant to thank you for the input as well. The information you stated was very interesting...especially regarding the fuel mileage. One thing I should note though....I bought this truck in September of '08. It has been running exactly like it does now since then...I just didn't know I had a problem (no diesel experience prior to this truck) until I puchased and started pulling our camper. I never have experienced a loss of power...this is how it's ran since I've owned it. It just became apparent to me when I ended up buying only a 7500 lb camper...and on our first trip to the mountains. That's basically what started my exploration. When I tested pulling my camper with a buddies stock 06 F350....I was blown away at how easy that truck towed my camper....it literally was like the camper wasn't even there (even knowing there is a rear end gearing difference...the peformance his truck gave me was a lot more than just a gearing difference). Then when I drove another stock 05 F250 just on a test drive a few miles up the road...the experience was totally different than when driving mine. Anyway...since it's been performing like this since I've had it, and if the problem were a lack of fuel pressure, and a lack of fuel pressure ruins the injectors...would I be able to run it for a year (16K miles) just like it is, or would the injectors have been ruined long ago?
