Please help! PSD running worse

Latley my truck has been running worse and worse. It starts fine and runs fine until warmed up (after about 5 miles or so) then all hell breaks loose. The injector noise is so loud you can't hear the radio. It's so loud that you can't hear the turbo flutter (walker BTM). It shakes real bad at idle. When the injectors kick back on on deceleration they go in and out for a couple of seconds. Oh and after idling for a while (caught a train) it started vibrating like it had a miss. Does the IPR need to be cleaned or is it something else? I plan on doing that today. Could it be something else?

Check the oil level in hpop. If it is low it might be and oil related problem.

Oh it only has 67K on it! That's the best part! My wallet is $300 lighter, too! I didn't want to bring this thing to the dealer, but it looks like I may have to.

i vote taking it to the dealer. you will spend more time and money chasing parts that you might might fix the problem. when you do that you run the chance of replacing parts that dont need it.

Yeah, you're right. Now it won't even run. I was running, I revved it to 2k and let off and it hasn't started since. Go figure. I think the HPOP failed, but what do I know?
