I have a '95 Powerstroke with about 175,000 on it. It ran fine this morning. I made a stop for about a 1/2 hr., re-started the truck, drove a few hundred yards and the truck started to skip real bad. It almost sounds like there is air in the fuel system, it's starving for fuel, or it's not running on all clylinders. I changed the fuel filter, no help! Since the cam sensor hasn't gone bad for a couple of years, I also changed that. No help. It will start right up, skip, sputter, but stay running. Check engine light is on. Fuel pump was changed about a year ago. Any ideas what to try next. Thanks for any help!

 

Check engine light on = codes generated. Get a scan, it will point you in the right direction.

 

check the oil level. Sounds funny but, really the injectors fire off oil pressure and if it is low it runs like crap.
