Hi All,
First of all i would like to say thank you to all on this site that have helped me and replied to me.
I bought my 1996 ext cab 4x4 6.5l TD about 1.5 years ago. Almost right away it started stalling when driving it. I did research and thought it was the PMD. I went online a bought the HEATH remote mount PMD kit that goes on the skid plate. I installed it and the truck ran great for about 1 year.
In the last 2 months is started stalling again. At any speed (usually in traffic in the middle lane at 10 mph) it will stall. When it does, i have noticed when you cycle the ignition, you get not glow plugs(WTS) light, no service throttle soon light, and no lift pump. The wierd thing is , if you wait usually 30 secs to 5 mins, all of the sudden these above mentioned devices reactivate, when you cycle the key. Then if you turn it all the way to start, the truck starts immediately. If those lights and devices do not come on , the truck will absolutely will not start.
I have already cleaned and checked all grounds, the turbo diesel shield is removed, the battery connections have all been checked(it always seems to have plenty of battery), i removed checked and cleaned the connectors to the ECM/PCM, changed fuel filter, replaced the fuel cap, checked for codes(there are none), double checked lift pump it functions as designed, cleaned all the relays and the the fuses with sandpaper.
Bill Heath has sent me a new PMD , on warranty. He is a good guy. I am still wondering if this is the problem.
I found this post on another site. My situation is very much the same.

Has anyone had this experience? Where it stalls and will not start and stalls, and it will only start when the glow plugs and other lights, and lift pump all the sudden come back online?
Thanks in advance.
