Well I got a big problem with my truck,I went and had the codes clear because I thought the 216? code popped up again because I had a loss in power. They cleared the codes then it wont' start. The check engone light is one. It will start with starter fuild but dies after you let off the pedal. It shows 4 different codes involing the injection pump. My friend and I think if has to do with my superchips programmer, that code has showed up before but I just set if back to stock then back to performance. I'm gonna do that later when I get my programmer and hope it works but I am kinda over due on a injection pump, 150,000 so far

 

216 code is kill code for Vp44 sorry bud

dont trew starter fluid into ur cummins man,the heater is not inside the block and it can explode in ur face

 

well I did it throught the air filter, the code showed up like 2 weeks ago, cleared it and haven't had a problem since then

 

That is the same thing as the intake, DON'T DO IT AGAIN. The heater grid in a Cummins has been known to cause explosions when you do what you are doing. First thing you are going to want to do is check your fuel pressure before the injector pump. If you don't have any pressure or it is very low (less than 4-5 psi) to the injector pump then you probably have a bad lift pump. Once you figure out if your lift pump is shot, you can work on the injector pump. I would venture to guess that your injector pump is shot as well with the codes that you are throwing.

 

well I checked the lift pump a couple weeks ago and it was about 15 psi idling and its less then a year old, my friend doesn't like superchips cause hes heard alot of bad things bout them and he thinks that helped mess it up, I have had problems with it since like two months ago after I borrowed my friends smarty

 

yup the smarty can be hard on fueling but ur pump was already dying,smarty didnt killed it but maybe speeding his death

 

well I took the superchips off and it still doesn't start but also no codes too, so I'm guessing I'm gonna need a injection pump

 

Here don't guess at it... Here is a few thing you can do to check your fuel system...

well my truck has been idling kinda rough sometimes lately and when driving, it like hesatites some, mopar1973man my friend told me bout your site lil while ago for your valve adjustments

 

well my friend can pry get a rebuilt one from 800 M&D Distributors for bout 800 hopefully then hes gonna change it out for me, hes done bout 40 of them so that'll work out good
