Hello all kind of new to this forum, hoping someone can help me out.
My truck is a 04.5 LLY/Alli CCSB. since the dy after i bought the truck its had somewhat a choppy or rough idle. From research first guess was filter head or FPR. While rebuilding the filter head i found the inlet was almost blocked off from what looked like sand. so new filter head, filter, hoses, & Carter lift pump was thrown on. Helped the truck dramatically, thought it was gone but nope. a few days later my head gaskets went. i also done a EGR delete when i did filter. so i hit up Creatures of the Night Performance and got a head gasket set with grade c's, ARP studs, and LML manifold. while i was in there i went ahead and threw in a new Bosch FPR from Alligator Performance and replaced all the other fuel lines too. again i thought it was fixed but wrong.
Truck runs awesome and balance rates all show awesome until she gets up to operating temps then balance rates show nothing. i have a snap on Solus pro im checking everything with. i thought the truck was at temp so i killed each injectors one by one. all injectors a big difference except number 7. so i ice picked #7 and started it back up. again thought everything was good til truck got to about 180° then came the choppy idle. so again i went to kill each injector and this time nothing changed when i killed any of them.
So now im lost and puzzled. i checked all the wiring while i was doing my head gaskets and everything looked good. i ended up replacing almost all the loom except for the plastic piece on the intake manifold. im just really stumped now and don't know where to turn. if anyone could chime in or help me run this problem down i would be forever grateful.
