My truck is a 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with a vp44 24v cummins. When I bought the truck it needed a trans so I never drove it but it idled fine but now that I am driving it I am having issues with the driveability. The truck idles a little high at 870 rpm. It white smokes when I rev on it a lot and misses. Sometimes it will drive fine but randomly lose power when going down the road and the rpm won’t exceed 2000 unless I flip the key off and back on. I’ve tried everything I can think of to fix it but I don’t know what else to try. I would like to do a p pump swap once I save up the money. Lift pump, AAPS, crank sensor, IAT sensor have all been replaced. Injectors have been pop tested. Took the timing cover off and checked the timing, and my fuel pressure is around 14 at idle and won’t drop below 8 when at full throttle. Truck doesn’t pull any codes with a code reader. If anyone has had this problem before or has any ideas I would appreciate the help. My vp44 may just be dead.
