Hpop Problems
Greeting,
First timer here. I have a 01 F-250 PSD 4x4 with 130,000 miles. I'm having an unusual problem when i start up. I will start up and have truck ideling and after about 10 sec or so it will die later to find out that my HPOP has run dry. I put oil in it and try again and it works. some times i have no problem at all works fine like it suppose to. After dealing with problem for a while i figued out when i start and the oil gage doesn't go up i just hit the throttle quickly to about 1,500 rpms and then the gage will work and everything is fine. Once it's running i have NO performance problems at all. Any sugestions on what the problem could be. Thanks.

The oil reservoir, used to maintain a ready supply of oil to the high pressure pump, is filled via two passages. For initial startup, oil is directed from the oil pump discharge port through a passage in the crankcase which also contains an anti-drain back check ball. This reservoir oil supply quickly replenishes oil to the high pressure pump during cold cranking to insure sufficient oil pressure to operate the injectors for quick starts. The primary reservoir oil supply is continuously fed from the left bank tappet gallery up through the front cover and discharges oil near the top of the reservoir.
