I have a 2002 single cab dually LB7 ZF6 4×4 . I have 430,000 miles. I've replaced injectors, alternator, water pump and head gaskets with studs. I just spent $2,000 for a new dual disc clutch. 6 months ago almost 3,000 on a completely new kryptonite front end. Still much cheaper than a new truck.

As an LLY owner pushing three hundred thousand miles, this is very helpful information thank you!

Incredible, been chasing this issues forever. Just ordered injectors and a delete kit. Now I have to do this while I’m doing it so my wife doesn’t find out! 🤣☠️🤘🏽

Your Video saved me a ton of hunting, this fix was EXACTLY my issue. Braided line was soft and kinked. Thanks much!!!!

Mines an 02 with 288k on it. I live in Fl and it gets hot. Mine was throwing the p0087 occasionally when it was hot and I had just run steady around 70-75mph and would stop at a light or such. On take off it would throw the code and limp. It started happening more and more frequently so I had to find it. Unfortunately for me it was the CP3 pump. A couple days and a lot of labor later ( and $$$) and it hasn’t done it since. Now, with this info I’ll know where to look should it do it again in the future. Appreciate it.

Man I gotta say, you always have great information. I do look forward to seeing your videos because I know it’s gonna be something worth watching. Thanks for trying to help the rest of us out, I know I appreciate it and I’m sure others do as well.

Everything you said and did is really good info , very much appreciated, if you want to go one step further , install fuel tank sump and lift pump and new quality hose to actually pressurize the supply line , and clean your cooler and with filtration from lift pump system you can eliminate the factory filter

Dude, good call. I did do the ported fitting a while back, I still have one for the passenger rail, but it's a lot more work to do that one. I've read you don't get much doing the passenger side, so I haven't tackled it. The throttle response was the most noticeable for me.

Thanks for the info, my 06 LBZ just did this to me in the heat pulling my 34ft RV through the mountains in Central WA. It's only got 245k miles on it and I was worried it was my injector pump or injectors but I'll definitely look at the lines before I take it to a mechanic...I can't wait for your update after your last load to see if it was indeed your issue. Great work man.

Yours is just broken in😎. I've done a ton of research since this video and have found that these injectors are really only good for about 160-200k max. After that, they start returning too much fuel. I just recently bit the bullet and installed new injectors.

FASS or Air Dog lift pump, I know there pricy. I've put a FASS 165 GPH, I've been told a lift pump is a must for a duramax to save your MP3 pump. That way your fuel is pressurized from you tank to your pump. And have a built in water separator filter a long with a regular fuel filter, and people have remove the 3rd filter at the block to save on the cost of that filter.

You ever have to mess with the rail pressure sensor ?

Good question, but no. Your truck will fire right up. I did use a small hack saw on the fitting that goes down next to the motor. It's really tight and I didn't want to nick anything important. Overall real easy modification.

Thanks I'll check!

I had the P0087 several times. Changed fuel filters to only last 1K-2.5K miles. Race plug did not solve it either so I put the FRPV back in. I’m thinking the worst! I found the two fuel lines near the transmission twisted; replaced them. The lines near the engine also had a slight kink, I did not replace the yet. Trying to find the quick connect fittings.

May have been a coincidence, but my fuel filter housing went out shorty after I posted this. Truck wouldn't start, so I installed a new housing. I've read that can also cause a P0087. It's a $100 part and takes about 45 minutes to install. Might be worth a try. My truck has been trouble free as of lately. Good luck to you buddy.

Crack open the bleeder screw on top of your fuel filter housing, pump the primer until fuel spills out, tighten the bleeder screw and then pump the primer again until it is rock hard. It'll start after that. Be careful not to over tighten the plastic bleeder screw, it is easy to break.
