Educate me...

chasing a no start on a buddy truck. WTS light comes on, tach moves, the truck ran, started losing power, died......

anyway, put my HPOP gauge on it for kicks, it will build 3500 PSI [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] unhook the ICP and it drops to 2000 PSI. unhook IPR and nothing like it should, so my question is.


Why is it buiding so much ICP when cranking I don't recall either of mine doing that when I had them hooked up. I can hear the internal relief valve opening when it builds that much pressure, thats why I checked into it in the first place.

Re: Educate me...

Check the fuel pressure. Sounds like the fuel pump in the engine vally took a dump.
