Hey everyone, my 2013 6.7 Cummins is having fuel delivery issues it jerks and a sluggish and sometimes dies when you try to accelerate yet. I change the fuel filter it was dirty. Even with new fuel filter it's like it is running out of fuel while you're trying to drive it down the road. With the engine off I turned ignition key on and can hear the electric fuel pump in the tank so I don't think it is the electric fuel pump I don't believe I have water or contaminants in my fuel but I guess there's always a possibility. Does anyone have any insight for me or could help me out here?? Thanks in advance

You should have two fuel filters on that truck. Also there is two fuel pumps, the electric lift pump that feeds the HPFP that is driven off the engine.
That stumbling could also be low/lack boost pressure. Without a turbo force feeding air into the engine, it's pretty much a boat anchor.
