    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    Very good. I'll call you in a little bit when I get a break. Thanks!

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    That sounds like a great way to go, Leroy - thank you! Have you been able to verify if the PMD physically works? As long as you tell me it works now, I've got no problems if it happens to crap out a month from now.

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    That's the only thing that ticks me off a bit (and really, I must say, that these guys are really a good bunch of people). They don't have any good ones laying around. He said they let people borrow the ones they used to have and never got them back. I could buy one to use as a test dummy...

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE Well, I got the initial prognosis from the shop. R&R the IP. Pulse Width is stuck at either 279.38ms or 0.00ms - nothing in between. They think the problem is the "solenoid on the back of the pump". Honestly, they were very informative, but I didn't write enough down so...

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    I have, I assume, the black box Stanadyne (mounted on the pump) since it was replaced about 5 years ago. I think the grey one is a relatively recent one?

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    Good points on starting with a known PMD. Thank you. APP: That makes a lot of sense, considering how quickly the throttle shut off - it felt like it was turning off like someone was throwing a switch. Does a failing APP always set an idiot light? I don't have one... at least not a visible one.

    D-Tech Still a Viable Option?

    Excellent point. Too many variables.

    D-Tech Still a Viable Option?

    Hmmm. Definitely good "food for thought". I was hoping to here "Yeah, this D-Tech (FS, as I learned more about this from that thread) has been the savior - it's great!". Wishful thinking, huh? At least, it seems like the recent ones are having the problems - and maybe the older ones weren't...

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    Thanks, Crank. Yeah, I should've included more info. I didn't test it, but the LP does run (it's a little grumbly when it's really cold, but it clears up fine and purrs). I bought it from Heath about 5 years ago. I always use a double dose of FPPF Total Power when I fill up. Oh, just to...

    Are These Symptoms of a Bad PMD?

    Hi everyone. I feel a little lost. There is so much info on this site, it gets a little confusing to weed through, sometimes. I know enough about the PMD issues to have a basic understanding of the problems associated with it, but not enough to weed through all the info efficiently. I know...
