So, I was heading home a short while ago, truck felt like it lost all power. I coasted a little ways, it seemed to pick back up and felt 'normal'. I parked at the grocery and when I came out, it wouldn't start. It felt like it was trying but wouldn't.
I call my wife, she comes and gets me and I get my fuel pressure gauge and stick it on rail, KO and it's reads 58psi. I crank it and it fires right up. I did this 2-3 times.
It's in the driveway now but could it be the fuel pump? What are my options?
No codes or messages on the DIC.
As far as I know it's the factory FF pump. Truck has about 225k on it. I got the truck when it was at 130k.
1. Walbro 450?
2. Hellcat pump?
3. Replacement factory FF pump? (that's what's in there now)
If I do 1 or 2, what's involved with the bucket? Do I need a hotwire kit or are there other options? Do I convert to a return system for future use? What is the part list for that?
Thanks in advance everyone.
