    Loss of acceleration today?

    Guess upstream isn't the right term, when it dies out, the filter on the firewall is full of fuel. So my thinking is if the sock or lift pump were the issue the injection pump would have sucked the fuel from the filter. Thinking the issue is between firewall filter and the cylinders. Odd that...

    Loss of acceleration today?

    Loss of acceleration today?

    Update: The filter isn't the problem. Not knowing squat about diesels, I'm guessing injector pump. Will surf through the troubleshooting section b-4 I spend $ on a pump.

    Loss of acceleration today?

    I was heading 30 miles to a MV event today, truck running fine (84 M1009) after a leg of the trip about 12 miles at 60 mph, had to make a turn. Low acceleration power, initially though that it just didn't downshift. Couple miles to a stop sign, took off pretty doggy long time to pick up speed...

    Quotes with M1009 resellers

    It has been forever since I dealt with a total loss, but each time it was a negotiation. They picked the cheapest ones they could find for the value. So I picked the most expensive examples & we met in the middle. One was a fully loaded low mile Trans Am and they were picking high mile...

    Dual plane vs single plane intake

    I don't believe it will do anything for the torque curve, but the improved air flow should raise both torque & hp (with added fuel)
