    Bad Injector Pump?

    I suspect my M1008 may have a bad injector pump and wanted to see if anyone here can confirm it. The symptoms are as follows: When I am cruising on the freeway at about 2650 rpm, the truck will suddenly not be able to accelerate or maintain speed. It feels like I have taken my foot off the...
