Default 1999 Lift Pump?

I decided today that I was going to hook up my Edge Juice w/attitude. So a few friends came over and we gave it a whirl. When we where done, the truck started and then stalled. The Additude Monitor said "Low Fuel Presure". It was reading anywhere from 0 - 1. Does this sound like a Lift Pump problem? And do I need a performance one or can I get away with a stock one. The truck runs but I am told it is running on the injector pumps and will damage them if I run it like that until I get the new pump. Any info would be great......

DO NOT RUN THAT TRUCK!!

The lift pump is a relatively cheap fix compared to that injection pump...........to the tune of 5X' and then some cheap.

If the lift pump is out, the injection pump has to draw it's own fuel and you'll burn it up.

Ohhhh, welcome to DF by that way.

Thanks! I ordered one this morning. I wanted the FASS but I just spent $700.00 on the Juice and ordered Rims, Tires, and a lift so I am strapped. But I will look into it right after I catch back up.

Thanks for the help!
