ok guys i am at wits end put new pmd on same problem starts hard and once i shut it off good luck getting it started again. pmd gets really hot it is mounted on back of bumper with heat sink can it be cps and where is cps located.

CPS wire runs down drivers side of water pump. Plug is top of water pump.

Have you checked the LP and OPS? Just to eliminate them.

yes i checked them the are ok . but something wierd happend today it started so i unpluged cps wire it stubbled and picked back up i pluged it back in and went into cab of truck and noticed service engine light was on so i shut truck off waited and restarted with no problems now truck is running good again.

ok guys just for a little insight i found the problem it was a pluged return line to tank man truck is running great now so if your haveing some start and die problems try blowing air thru return lines

OK, a few issues here...

- a plugged return line will NOT make a PMD on a heat sink 'get really hot'
- not sure a plugged return line will make for hard-to-start issues.

Bad CPS sensor or connection will, though. I thought you had the problem solved in post #4

ok i forgot to fill in some blanks i found a bad prong on wire to pmd that fixed it from getting hot but truck was still start then die i got frrusterated and started checking everything i noticed when i pulled return line off it had some pressure behind it so i took my air hose and blew it out i took like 3 times to get whatever was plugging it out the truck has been starting and running fine. thanks for all your help and i hope that what i found can help some of you all

good job! nothing better than fixing and finding the problem all by yourself. But will a bad prong on a pmd cause starting issues?

ok now i need some help again for some reason my truck will die i pulled the filter out and there was very little fuel in filter i checked everything nothing checks bad so i hooked a toggle switch to fuel pump i turn it on before i start truck and it will stay running so please help for i dont know if this will hurt my fuel system.

Won't hurt but sounds like the problem is a bad OPS or LP wiring/grounds. Probably a good idea to have a look through the FAQ. Tons of info on the LP and OPS there.

ok ops was bad thanks
