Red has the flu

So found out who the previous owner of my truck was today. It was Eric. The owner of innovative diesel out of elkton, Md. Just 20 miles from my house. Found out after talking to the guy that used to work on red and describing what she looks like. Now yesterday was first start up since she Gelled up. Ran awesome. Go to start it today and is loping real bad, puffing smoke, and stalled out. Started back up after having to let it sit for 10 min. But stalled again. Now won't start. Tries to but won't pop off. I'm to the point that I've thrown in the towel. I'm having Marty from martys diesel come get it and figure it out. If its Hpop I'm gonna get that replaced as well as just do the oil cooler and egr delete while he is in there. Pretty sure my cooler is goin anyways cause there is a big jump between ect and eot. Gonna prob set me back bout 2300 if its Hpop. O well. I've come to except it since I bought the truck used at 77k miles and now has 84k

Ummm, Eric didn't already have the studs and cooler done???? Surprising you didn't already talk to him about it and why he sold it? He may have some interesting info for you.
