I have a 98 one ton chevy van with a 6.5 diesel and it has been running rough
when cold and now it misses real bad when engine is cold and still some after it is fully warmed up. It starts right up and idles fine. Has no power under throttle. It has 150,000 miles and 100,000 on block. Dealer replaced injection pump and PMD under warranty one time. It was actually stalling while driving down the road that time.
It has also had the lift pump replaced once.
This is different. Could it need new injectors at 150,000 miles or is it the PMD.
It has to be awfully hot crammed under that dog box compared to a pickup.
If it needs a new PMD I was wanting to mount a remote one with a cooler but with a van you are really limited to space where you could mount it.
It also needs head gaskets. The one on the drivers side is leaking.
Mechanic recommended replacing injectors while he has it torn apart to do the head gaskets.
Does anyone know if the remote PMD cooler from A 1 Customs is a good unit.
It is around $ 550.00 with a new PMD.
I have owned 3 6.2 GM trucks back in the 80's and this one I have had 9 years since new
thanks
