    Possible fuel pressure issues, No acceleration.

    Got back from VA Beach last night. Had some problems on the way home. The worst was every time I hit a traffic light I had no pick up and you could tell that the engine was starving for fuel because it was shaking like crazy. When I stopped to get some fuel cause I only had a quarter tank left I...

    Possible fuel pressure issues, No acceleration.

    Hey everyone, I haven't posted on here in a while. The last time I posted was when I had fuel delivery problems. I replaced the fuel pump on the rail and the fuel pump in the tank. I know it sounds crazy but look at my ordeal here...

    Death shake in OD and 3rd gear, Possible fuel issue

    The vent tube is already short. I felt inside the tank and it is only a half inch long or so. The fill neck goes in about 12 inches.

    Death shake in OD and 3rd gear, Possible fuel issue

    This has become a PITA, I wonder if I can change it over to the standard fuel tank sending unit in the Hutch mod. According to O'Reilly's my sending unit has a pump in it. I'm so confused as what to do now.

    Death shake in OD and 3rd gear, Possible fuel issue

    Ugh well it looks like I found the problem and this was what I was worried about. Apparently my Excursion is a "California Vehicle" I had this same issue with a glow plug relay issue I had some time ago and wondered why my relay was different than most peoples truck. Well I live in NJ not in...

    Death shake in OD and 3rd gear, Possible fuel issue

    So I am in the middle of doing the hutch mod. My tank is dropped and opened, however my pickup doesnt look like the one in the picture on Guzzle's site. Everyone on here with an X is saying that there is no difference between a 250, 350, or an X tank. Mine doesnt match up and feels like it is...

    Death shake in OD and 3rd gear, Possible fuel issue

    What's a buzz test? I plan on dropping the tank on sunday. I am not really driving the truck until then. Trying to get all my stuff together for the mods like the FRx, hutch mod, and the harpoon mod. Anyone have any opinion on this? Diesel Innovations Complete SS Pre-Pump fuel line kit

    Glow Plug recommendations and issues...

    Ok so this is where I am at now.... So I installed a new GPCM last night. Got power to all my glow plugs, cleared the codes and now I am still getting a P0677,76,75 and 72. But they all are working. So I dunno whats going on now. Everything ohm's at 1.0-.9 from the harness that plugs...

    Glow Plug recommendations and issues...

    Yeah, it will be my second GPCM. The only difference besides still getting the codes, this time I am going to test the wiring and see if I'm getting power to the driver side of the motor with this new GPCM. I didn't do that with the other one. I just plugged it in, cleared the codes and the...

    Glow Plug recommendations and issues...

    Well this is where I am at now. If anyone is interested, at this point it is more for documentation on this site. I ohm'd ALL the glow plugs at the connectors under the valve cover or the in gasket connector. They all ohm'd .9 off the passenger side battery and ohm'd at 2.7 to 2.9 on the driver...

    I also tried replacing the glow plug control module. It's an expensive part. Well over $100, so I bought one from rockauto.com, installed it, cleared the codes, and tried starting my truck a few times, just for the codes to reappear. So I swore it was my glow plugs.

    Yeah Dave, it's the Glow Plug Control Module. I don't have a relay. From what I am reading, my truck has a "California" glow plug system. The GPCM is my relay if you will. Here's a link with a good diagram...
