I have the latest Diacom (2.5 version) software on my laptop and recorded 10 minutes of run time. I am having an issue with the engine being unable to run above idle. She'll just seem to struggle for fuel then cutoff when I go to give it some throttle. I have recently replaced the fuel filter and it started shortly after that. It ran fine right after replacing it but the next time I attempted to start it it would not start, then a week later i tried again and it only idles now. Engine serial number is 4012071102

Does anyone also have the Diacom software where I can give them a copy of the file and they can look at the data and tell me if anything looks out of specs? No codes appeared at all during the recording. Thanks in advance...

Might try doing some fuel pressure tests first. When you replace your filter, did you check the old filter for water? Did you make sure the old filters gasket came off too? 2 gaskets will leak for sure.

After some more T-shooting this morning I figured out the issue. The high volume fuel pump connector was loaded with green corrosion (thanks to salt water living) so cleaned it out with some baking soda in warm water and a toothbrush. She's pumping just fine now. The second fuel pump is louder than the HV so it wasn't until I disconnected it that I realized the HV was not coming on at all after the turn key. Ran it awhile and she seems ok. Throttle sticks occasionally around 1,000 rpm. I'm guessing throttle cable needs some lube.

Don,

Was able to self T-shoot this time but I will no doubt ring your doorbell sometime in the future...thanks for the reply.
