97 Turbo Powerstroke help

I have posted this before, with no luck , I will try to make it as exciting as the cam sensor that you all suggested and fixed my problem thanks,

My diesel starts okay, but as soon as it does and I push on the accelarator my whole engine rumbles.
Going down the road it does it still, however if I take it out of gear and coast it doesnt. But even out of gear if I push down on the accelarator its rumbles.

Any suggestions.

can you be moore specific about the rumbling sound?
Is the engine missing, stumbling or is it just a noise
louder the normal?

Is it using oil?

Might be a bad injector, i do not know if there is a way to test them, but i would check that, and would remove them cas if you have them, they are going to clog up and be nothing but problems, save your self the greef. Could be a injector seal, are you loosing or gaining any fluids, primarily coolant and oil?

Is your truck a stick? If so it sounds like the dual mass fly wheel is bad. I have driven two trucks with bad fly wheels and they make a rumbly/racheting sound, it is kinda hard to describe though. This is my guess though. One of the trucks, the owner thought that is was an injector, but it turned out to be the fly wheel. Hope this helps some.
