Sputter , stall again ...
Thank you to evryone who helped out 2 weeks ago ...... I thought I had fixed the problem by changing out the CPS , but alas it did it again the other night ..... I know some of you have suggested it might be the clips under the headers but from the sounds of that it would be more speratic . My stall outs seem to happen on the last 1/4 of my commute from work to home or home to work . I drive ruffly 18 miles to work Mon. through Fri. .
The first time this happend was about a month and a half ago . At that time I thought it was cause I had let my oil get to low ( bad Me ) . Changed it all out and it ran great for like 2 weeks and started up again . So two weeks ago I changed out the CPS and again it ran great until the other day , (Thurs ) , but Friday ran ok..... this has seems to happen mostley when it rains , (which is hard to say living in the Pacific North West ) . My OBDII is'nt giving me any codes . I was thinking it may be a short but where to start ...... Thinking I may have to bite the bullet and find a diesel Mechanic ......

I think grease on the rubber boot/seal at the plug to seal from moisture is where to apply. How are your battery connections? Clean/tight. Also the was some mention of leaking windshields and the fuse box. Might want to check there next wet road trip. Some code readers will not work on our trucks. Is the CEL on?

CEL ???? Hmmmm i'll check for leaks and stuff ....... I greased the CPS but not the actual plug in to the wire harness ......... but on the other hand if it was water would'nt it be more speratic , I don't know ......... If it keeps it up it's gonnna get a 45. hole in it ......................
