Ok guys here it is I got this code after I plug the OBD II scanner tool on this truck I just bought. The previous owner told me about this problem , when the truck is running at speeds of 60 o 70 the pedal wont respond and the speed goes down and I have to lower the speed by braking or putting it on neutral and then it will respond. What do you guys think?

The P0216 means the injection pump can't advance properly. Unfortunately, there are no user serviceable parts in the VP44 so it will have to be replaced to solve the "dead pedal" problem. Eventually, it will die all together and wont restart. I ran with a P0216 for nearly a year, with intermittent dead pedal and hard starting, before the injection pump finally quit completely.
