had a friend that was an armored car guy. he musta heard "stick 'em up!" 100 times a day, and then some moron laughing. i can see why the airlines don't see the humor.
my friend was at the US/CAN border and there was an extremely gorgeous border guard. guys were making a$$es of themselves, saying "Search me!!", and ..."I've got drugs!". don't know what happened, but something tells me the latex glove that tickled their small intestine wasn't from border-babe!
okay, enuf digressing here. why are you (dis)gracing us with your presence OFC ? and why didn't ya tell me so i could get ya to mule some atv goodies here for me? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] OR, i coulda taken ya out for a ride. where are you rich boys headed?

aw man, it's just too hard to quote these replies, one by one. so let's try this:
1) Creator, ..."tell them you're huggin trees and bashing Americans"... ROTFLMFAO!! that's hilarious. actually, they should arrive at the guard booth smokin a BFO (big-fat-one) of BC bud, wearing those incredibly stupid Arastafarian/Jamacian tam-hats (or touques, or whatever they are...you know, the one you like to wear when you listen to your rap on boom box). then, all hold hands and sing, "koom-by-ah" . yep, that's what we're all about here.
2) I think we replaced the cam position sensor under warranty, ages ago, because my Kiwi-diesel mechanic pal (now deceased) knew a lot of those were failing, so we were ahead of the game. do these wear out?
3) OFC, are you mad?? bringing food into OUR country? It's a childish pi$$ing contest right now. When we go to America, we don't bring squat for food. they threw out our freakin dry kibble dog food last time, and took away a can of Chunky-beef stew. Even citrus fruits that come from the US, they won't let us bring across (not a lot of citrus growing weather here in the frozen tundra).It's so political, but part of it is the 2 mad cows that still sees us under a beef ban to the US. then we had a chicken flu, so no eggs, etc.. Re-read my point #1 to creator... they'd be more apt to welcome drugs and firearms than foreign food.
4)MD/ofc, i think they run a CPIC at the computer the moment you show your ID. they wanna know who's coming in. they do the same when we go to USA.

How does it restart? Does just fire right back up and idle correctly? Does it take a lot of cranking to start? Does it spudder when idling?
Diesels don't (or gas engines either) like cracked fuel lines. It lets air into the system and will cause stalling, hard restarts after sitting, and spuddering. Check the lines and replace the filter and see what happens next. Let me know what you find out

ya, back on the psd topic, i had some wierd problems today. I stalled a few times, on a steep hill. I'd get it to re-start, it'd move 10 feet, and just die. so i pulled the chip, and it kept acting the same way. managed to limp home by re-starting and moving ahead in 10 foot increments.
so then i go out again (still no chip). it starts to sputter and is puking out blue/grey smoke big time. i can hammer the gas pedal, and it has zero affect, just keeps chugging along, coughing out heavy smoke. so, any thoughts on what this problem might be?

Buy one on line-might save some bucks. The IH one is listed as being a little cheaper too[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Like PS typed earlier- does the tach needle bounce when starting? It gets it's signal from the CPS and if it's not working it won't move in most cases. Check this first. Good luck!!
