GA Guy Stranded in Spartanburg

strictly gravy · 02-15-2008, 12:21 PM

Hey all, My truck just up and died getting onto I-26 about 45 minutes ago, and I am trying to figure out my options. I tried to refire it but nothing. I have the p1693 code and I am unable to check the FP as my gauges is sitting on the bench in the garage next to my holley blue pump and big line kit(Sunday Project). So, I am thinking its the VP, but I am about to head back out there with some wrenches to pop the injector lines and a new fuel filter. I am trying to figure out my options with either towing it back to the Atlanta area where I am at if its the VP to have someone do it or if there is a place nearby spartanburg to do it so I can save on towing costs. So, if anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I will not be in front of a computer for the rest of the day, but I can be reached at 678.215.8523. Thanks everybody.

-Greg

Well, got it home. My gf's stepdad drove up from ATL with a tow bar and we got it home. Sadly, it was in his powerstroke so I get to hear about it for the rest of my days. Oh well, at least its home....Now its on to trouble shooting.

If you were near the I26 and I85 interchange there was a Cummins dealer one exit west on I-26. Sorry to hear about your problem, I wish I was on line yesterday to help. Good luck getting it up and running.
