Diesel stalling?
I replaced the cam sensor on my 95 350 psd and now a couple of weeks later it is stalling when I come to a stop and when putting it in reverse I noticed today that I can keep it from stalling by putting the trans in neutral (automatic). I have also noticed that ocassionally at idle the truck is rocking much more than usual. Any ideas?

poor fuel? dirty fuel filter? clogged injector(s)? maybe try changing the fuel filter, and fill the filter bowl up with stanadyne before putting on the cap in order to flush the injectors, start and let idle for 10-15 minutes (DO NOT DRIVE OR REV MOTOR) just let it idle
the only other thing can think of off the top of my head is possibly corroded or burnt contacts on the wiring harnesses to the injectors. without more info it is hard to guess....
btw/ the 10K mod is a 10k ohm resistor wired into 2 pins on the ICP, what it does is fools the computer and make it increase the fuel pressure on the fuel rail supplying the injectors. Its pushes in a little more fuel and gives a little more pep... but it can also cause your truck to idle rougher

Technitom , You stated the 10K mod will make the truck rough . I have had my truck a little over a month ,and it also idles rough , how would I check to see if this mod has been preformed ? If this isn't the cause of the rough idle , any ideas ?
