Friend called me saying his early 04 truck died and hes getting p0628 code. Does this mean a bad connection or bad lift pump? Believe his is still on the block.

thanks im going to have to check my truck again and see if this is what i have going on.

I heard about the same problem through one of my friends. The sounds will appear like the factory lift pump on the back of the filter housing finally failed. Without it the truck will not run at all unlike the previous 24 valve this truck will not run without it I have seen this often . It's covered under 100,000 mile warranty. Have installed a few the fix to remove the old one from the engine compartment and relocate the new one to the fuel tank like make sure that they retroit it to the in tank fuel supply pump also does not cost extra and should not have to ask for it but it should be automatic for them.

If this is the same as my 01, easy check is the battery connections. Power is off one side, ground off the other.
