lb7 owned by brother in law loaned to a friend. Friend calls, he is driving down interstate at 75 mph. all the sudden loss in power & cant get to 65 mph for about a mile until he pulls over. No overheating, voltage normal, no warning lights. Nothing obvious seen under the hood so he tries restarting. Good fast crank, compression sound normal but no start.

My brother in law had him open bleed screw and pump primer, had fuel there. Tightened bleeder and it pumped up to normal (the primer has already been rebuilt end of last year).

He was in process of disconnecting and reconnecting battery when I called him.

I know the injector harness is known for chaffing issues, told him look for that.

I'll know more soon, but any theories?
 
Sorry, didn’t realize i left this thread open ended. But it has been way too long for me to Remember what was the solution here.
