Well that eliminates the possibility that the fuel pick-up foot has a problem.

Oil in the ICP is not good and an indication that it is bad, or is going bad and needs to be changed. I would start there first, then change the CPS as that is a cheap attempt for the fix as well.

Mine acted similar and it ended up being the ICP, but I changed the CPS first and wasn't the issue. Now I have a spare.

Fuel was horrible screens completely plugged and wore out the fuel pump only had 30psi. $1000 later and she should be running today.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you got stiffed.

That pump is $150.

Bosch Electric Fuel Pump - Riffraff Diesel Performance

I'm glad the truck is running, but that should not have been a $1000 fix. Many forum members could do that in two hours.

He may have got jabbed...but unless he had time and a place to work on it.

One time I was picking up at the MSP airport, Delta cargo. I pulled into the lot, shut the truck off, brought my shipment to the counter...went out, truck wouldn't start.

Now I was pretty darn sure it was the CPS, but I neither had one, or had the tools to change it. Called a tow....6 mile tow to a Ford dealer. "Oh, we can't get to it today."....Um, it's 60 miles home....."We have rentals."

Well, they got a tech to have a quick look....yep CPS....$400 and I was on the road home. An hour out of my day.....done. That's back when CPS's were $100 items as well.
