I've been told FPR. Last time I had it up they checked it, the reading was "low", but the diesel tech wasn't concirned as he said he's seen lots of truck run just fine with the readings mine had. I don't remember (or if he even told me) what it was compared to what it "should" be.
hmm, maybe I should bring it your way and pay you to play with it for and hour or so. You can tell me all the things "wrong" with it :haha:
Unfortunately, from what I know the FPR is buried in the motor too. IIRC not an incredibly "difficult" job, just time consuming.Yes the FPR typical will give you a surge at idle--has to do with the pintle either not seating correctly due to the motor or something in the windings from sitting at a certain position for ever and a day.

Not something I'll be doing anytime soon myself, and probably not something I can pay to have done anytime soon unless I *need* to.
Ahhh, the joys of owning a 'used' diesel truck. Sometime I wonder if I should have bought a gasser![]()
They are pretty easy and I have done a fewBut for somebody not familure with the motor it's not a fun job
But to give you some piece of mind mark I have yet to see one do anything but a surge.
Try doing one the day after you smash your finger in a log splitter!
I've actually replaced one due to a cold start/stall issue....done a few myself for the surging complaint as well...
