    Well the company sold the truck, I'm in a 2014 KW t660. So all is well until today when my engine loses power on hills and hard acceleration. Into the KW dealership tomorrow to see what's wrong

    Oh, man. That sucks. Since truck is new they should replace it by warranty. I changed mine on ISX at 450K miles, both of them. (sick!) Now it has 1200K miles, everything works fine. (knock-knock-knock)

    I hear ya, I'm guessing it has two pumps? A high and low pressure? Because they said my high pressure pump needed to be replaced which is why on hills or under acceleration it would lose power

    Yeah, two pumps. I was trying to change diaphragm only, but it failed in a month. So I bought whole pump, and then second pump (low and high pressure, yeah). Back then it was $450+700+labor.
