I clean the screen everytime I change the fuel filter, about every 20,000 miles, more if the light comes on. The first time I cleaned the screen, I couldn't see how it ran in the first place.

Hi Guys,
I thought I'd let you all know the the dealer installed IPR cured the problem. I've put over 1000 miles on it in the past few days and it did not stall one time. It idles smoother too!

$500 and some change. I was there do do a job for them. They had a truck in there with a burned up rear spindle on an F350. I am an axle surgeon and we replace spindles on drive axles and trailer axles when they get damaged. Anyhow, I was there, and they had techs with time on their hands. So, one of them hooked up a scanner and no real problems came up. But based off what I told them, and the way the truck was idling, the tech said the same thing that cuda jim, and others said. He suggested just replacing the IPR instead of just the o-rings. So I said go ahead. I still left their with them oweing me money for what I did, so it wasn't too bad. I'm just glad it's fixed. It has been running rough and stalling for as long as I have owned the truck, which has been for over 60,000 miles.
