serial number of truck?

the E-38 is:
LPG VAPORIZER DIAGNOSTIC RESULT SIGNAL

so there is some soft of fuel related problem

in one of the service grams i found it has a list of a troubleshooting guide to check related to this code but depending on the year/Tier level some of these may vary.

- Check fuel pressure.
- Replace the filter screen in the injection holder body under pressure sensor.
- Is fuel rushing past the injector body and into the intake?
- Fuel pressure readings low and tech adjusted the vaporizer. Unit is running fine.
- Found broken wires at the fuel pressure sensor. was reading 0.0 kpawith fuel lock jumped
out and engine running.
- Tech cleaned the fuel filter and cleared code.
- Resolution: screen plugged
- Check to see if the ECU was changed or the injection holder was changed. If the parts are mixed depending on fuel system, this code will set.
- Check injection holder filter screen if fuel pressure is too low.
- Check for fuel leaking into the balance line vacuum hose. (leaking vaporizer diaphragm).
- Check for raw fuel smell into the intake (listen for air noise when key on).

Fact of the week
In 1923, French tennis player René Lacoste was promised a crocodile leather suitcase by his captain if he won his next match. He lost the match but won the nickname "the crocodile" which he had sown onto his tennis attire. Ten years later he launched the first polo shirt and Lacoste, the first brand to feature a logo on its clothing.
