Hi everyone. New here. '01 2500 Diesel, EZ chip, new transfer and injection pump 40k miles ago, trucks at 115k miles. Just got done driving 1700 miles on my move from Utah to Texas. At about 500 miles into the trip, and right after filling up with a fresh tank of fuel, the engine hesistated and simply didn't seem to be burning fuel efficiently. Anywhere above about 1850RPM it ran horribly and wouldn't accelerate. This all would stop after buring off about 3/8 of a tank of fuel. I thought "well, must have been a bad batch of fuel." but nope, happened everytime I filled up, if fact I stopped filling the tank. Now, it wasn't blowing white smoke, or any smoke for that matter, so I'm hoping its not the injection pump...cause I can't afford that right now! Hopefully there is something wrong with the fuel tank that I can fix...I really don't know...any ideas?

Thanks!

 

Don't know how many diesel pros there are in 2nd Gen but you'll probably get more (and better) responses in the CTD section since your problem appears to be engine specific.

 

That's SOMEWHAT what my 2000 dodge ram is doing. Code P-1740 came up for me and it's a TCC Or OD Solenoid Performance... hopefully going in to the dealership tomorrow.
