problem #1

Sep 282004

Suburban 8-cyl Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 305,000 miles
There were non events leading up to the unexpected failure of my stanadyne pump mounted driver (fuel solenoid driver). The failure caused my 1995 6.5L diesel Chevrolet Suburban to stall in rush hour traffic! this caused me to loose power brakes and power steering. Being a 3/4 ton pickup, this was not a pretty picture. The stall caused me to run off the road and into a ditch. Luckily there was no oncoming traffic. To correct the problem I installed a new ~$400 stanadyne pmd. These pmds are known to go out every 30,000 miles. This is not acceptable, and stanadyne needs to do something about this manufacture flaw.
