Default IT RUNS!...kinda

ok heres the thing. unplugged the grid shot it with ether and it fired. then after trying that for so long it will run under its own power. but when i hit the skinny peddle nothing happens. maybe increase in rpm by 100. but nothing further. shut it down and it takes either to fire it back up. so im guessing the IP isnt putting the pressure out to make it run better? the APPS is working my zilla reads the throttle when i move it around. does anyone have any ideas?

Check lift pump pressure first. Check fuel filters. Are you getting fuel from the high pressure fuel lines?

Lift pump pressure is ok. It could be the three pumping plungers are worn out ( which arent servicable). Are you getting a check engine light?
