Hey yall, working on my '96 Chevy Silverado. Its has 6.5L turbo diesel. Anyway it runs like a dream, but every once in a while it will just turn off. No warning, no spitting and sputtering it just dies. I found this on GM-Diesel.com Information, and discussion, related to General Motors line of diesel engines, including the new Duramax, and other diesels in general. and I was wondering if any of you have had this problem. Its a long shot but I hope.
Engine Stalls
Here is an easy way to zero in on a stalling problem.
If it feels like someone reached over and turned off the key and it fires back up right away it's the injection pump.
If the same thing happens but it has to cool down before restarting it's the PMD / FSD(pump mounted driver).
Also, when I registered on gm-diesel I used my email that I used to register on here with and the admin sent me a mesage that my email address was banned on that site. I have never even been on that sight. Whats that about. I had to use my back up email!
