Strange rough idle
I drove my truck home last night and pulled into the driveway to an idle. As I sat for a bit the truck was running very rough at idle. I subsequently popped in a new CPS, with no change. I woke up this morning and drove it to a job, no problems with the idle. Not too sure what is going on with it. I am about to change my turbo, pedestal and all, with new boots. It runs killer on the road at speed, so I dont think I have an injector problem. I might try changing the fuel filter next. Any ideas?
Perhaps an IPR rebuild in order?

Yeah, kinda weird isnt it. I just changed my oil a couple thousand miles ago, if that. I just replaced the fuel filter and it looked fairly dirty. We will see......................

I dont think your kidding but i just paid $75 to have it changed, I'll ride it out til the next interval. And if the problem goes away because of it then I'll buy you an ice cream sandwhich. But im pretty sure it was a bad batch of diesel, Wally World has been known to supply sh1tty diesel now and then.

Wonder if the HP x-over line from head to head would resolve your stumble. It seems to have made mine more responsive and doesn't stumble at first startup anymore. It goes immediately to good idle.
