Message to all who responded with help: Thank you ! I will check the injector lines, just to be sure. Changed out the starter and the problem has gone......so far ! ( knock on wood! uh, have to use my head ! )
Diesel-Dan, I'm still interested in the fuel pressure gauge and mounting it in the cab using an isolator. Any suggestions as to what Auto Meter part I may need ? And would I need to hook it up to the port on the FASS Pump or put a "tee" inline on the outlet side of the FASS System, close to the Injector Pump ? Also, I'm not sure how to look back 8 posts on this DTR page. Could you give me a hint on how to do it or do I need to do something at another page ?

You will never find a lifetime wnty VP-44....if you do....let me know where you got it! I will buy one! To reman these pumps, you have to be a Bosch Authorized Remanufacture. More than likely your pump shop is getting these 2nd hand (Which is fine….that is a good price he gave you). Unless they are a pretty big outfit.

Diesel-Dan,
When I tap into the fuel line to install the fuel pressure gauge, will the pressure from the FASS System read around 95 psi or will it read 16 psi ? I guess what I'm asking is what PSI rating of a gauge will I need ?
And I've seen the Pricol Optix Gauges at Black Cloud and hey, they do look very sweet indeed ! I wonder will they work with the Banks Ottomind System I presently have ? I was told by Banks that these Banks gauges ( the signals ) are sent by their control box ( which came in my PowerPack kit ) to their gauges and that they are configured to work with this system. So I wonder, if I were to order these Pricol Optix Gauges and unhook the wires from the Banks Ottomind Computer, will everything still work properly ? And by the way, the Banks Gauges are made by Autometer, in case you didn't know, or at least that is what they told me.

Unless banks offers a Fuel pressure gauge, i would feel that a mechanical 0-30 PSI would be plenty. The 95 is Gallons Per Hour. Not PSI. You could be anywhere from 13-21 PSI depending how old of the kit you have.
