Stalling and cutting out.
Hi wiganwarrior,
I'm also in the UK and have a 96 Diesel suburban which used to stall on a very intermittent basis.
First, Which dealer did you take it to and what codes (actual numbers) were showing when they scanned it?
Next, are you mechanically inclined and able to have a go at checking some things?
How long have you owned the truck and any history on how long this problem occurring?
When you first turn on the ignition switch, can you hear the lift pump buzzing from under the body below the drivers seat? That's assuming your Sub is still left hand drive.
Let us know and perhaps we can help before you need to spend
6.5 turbo Diesel stalling and shutting down
I had trouble with my diesel shutting down. Changed the Oil sending unit and it has been 3 yrs with no other problems...... Also along the same subject I also had to run a new ground wire from near the Passenger side battery to the engine the braided ground had burnt all the fastening clips off. This new ground was done with a 12/2 romex house wire .... This also solved a shut down problem..... With the 6.5 TB diesel it doesnt hurt to pull the starter every year or slow or hard to start engine and have it redone this usually helps spin the engine a lot quicker....
Engine shut off while driving
Find fuel solenoid fuse 20A blown. Replaced fuse and tried to start engine.
Engine runs for a couple of seconds with rpm rising to 3000 (or more) and then shuts off again.Heavy grey smoke. No codes read in PCM. I am not able to read IP codes. Could this be a faulty FSD?
