    No power at idle

    Well, I want to thank everyone that gave so much advice on my issues. After replacing the lift pump, I turned the fuel up, adjusted top fuel screw and starwheel. It now has balls everytime I hit the accelerator from idle....I consider problem solved. Tomorrow I install a pyro gauge.

    10-4 will do. I hope to get on it one afternoon this week. I really appreciate the help.

    Also,, it appears I do have full travel on the fuel shutoff.

    I do not have an EGT, I need to get one. you mentioned in an earlier post the main fuel adjustment. You are talking about the one on the very end of the pump facing the cab? I did turn the one under the cap on top of the pump...just some. Driving today, problem still there, great until I have...

    Nothing. I have more checks to do but we do drive it maybe every other day when it cools off outside and it seems to be doing better.... Will post more checks when I can do them.

    It can be intermittent with lift pump?

    Nope, no nothing when it wont go. But the times that it does go, it does roll alot. That analogy does help!!!

    No power at idle

    Update on low/no power when leaving from idle....as I had said, the aneroid and fuel screw mostly fixed it however now it seems "sometimes"...maybe half the time when leaving from idle it has no power...then other half of time if gets rolling raly good. I think it is a boost issue....aneroid...

    I will verify and post. I know it usually idles a little higher than what it is set at due to sticky throttle. Can put my boot under pedal and lift it a little to make it idle down.

    I received the clear fuel line diagnostic tool from 7435A2 today. Installed in a snap and gave 100% good indication that I do not have any air being sucked in....this is way easier than starting troubleshoot blindly for possible air being sucked in.

    Messed IP some....turned aneroid and it helped some. I hope that the Gotcha. I did check and it is nice and tight.

    Well, just went on a long ride. I 100% have TC lockup. I reckon that is good news. This truck runs so good except for the hard 2nd upshift....will tackle that after this. It's only issue is that not wanting to move sometimes from a dead stop.

    Found last night the guy I bought it from was having exact same issues with it in 2013 right after he got it from Uncle Sam. He hardly drove it and no real troubleshooting was done.....I wonder if it is a boost issue.

    And to make things worse, the plug over aneroid adjustment is seized. Had it soaking and still nothing. About stripped now. Will have to fold another approach at removing.

    I don't have access to diagrams easily. This phone not helping. Is the diaphragm on the end if IP ? I take it the pressure line is the small one going in and end of IP?

    Mighty handy...I like. I will see if I can feel the TC. So once it shifts (it's a hard shift) Into second as it is winding out I should feel the TC lock and then hit 3rd....right?

    I thought about that exact thing and it definitely has all the gears.
