Default Fuel filter

Should add that the fuel filter was replaced approx 2 weeks ago in hopes that was the issue.

I'm going to take a guess and say that your truck is a diesel. You might look at the lift pump and fuel pump.

Heres some diagnostic info: http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd...ii-error-codes

I would guess there's something wrong with the ecm, or you have separate problems; bad injection pump, bad apps wiring, bad oil psi switch wiring.

Look around on cummins forum for people who have similar codes, especially the p0216 and p0121
