Failing diesel injection pump on 1996 Chevrolet K1500 pickup with 6. 5l diesel engine causes engine to stall when approaching a stop, rendering power steering and power brakes inoperable. This is a common problem on 1994 through 1999 gm vehicles equipped with this engine. Dealer diagnosed the problem, but refused to repair under warranty, despite an 11-year, 120,000 mile extended warranty issued by Chevrolet motor division due to numerous problems with this pump.
