'95 6.5 Diesel Stalling out - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

OK, my 1995 3500 w/ 6.5 diesel started coughing last week when accelerating. So, I figured fuel filter. No big deal, I keep one behind the seat. So I swapped it out yesterday. I drove it another 100 miles yesterday and the problem was still there.

In fact, it is now worse. Driving home last night it started coughing and sputtering more, and even died at low speed/low idle while turning around in a parking lot.

This morning, it died while accelerating out of my little boys school. I brought it home and it just doesn't want to keep running.

I start it up, runs fine for about 20 seconds and then sputters a few times like it's struggling to get fuel and dies. I try to give it a little fuel and its like there is nothing there.

Anybody have thoughts on this???
