    Fuel issue, idle's fine but dies when you give it throttle

    It's like a white nylon material with a steel bung woven into the strainer, and it's brazen or soldered on the pickup tube. The easiest way to fix it is to buy the whole unit from O'reilly auto for $60 bucks. Make sure you get the one with three lines on top. I've got a spin on filter and...

    It was covered in this grey metallic sludge, and apparently when they assemble the tank at the factory they leave clumps of solder.

    Fuel issue, idle's fine but dies when you give it throttle

    Well I got it all sorted out. I dropped the tank cleaned it out (pain in the a$$) because of these big hands not fitting in the sending unit hole, but got it done. Took the strainer off the pickup tube and bent the pickup tube up a little off the bottom of the tank until I get a new sending...

    I'm running a 4" rough country lift with 2" spacers. I have plenty of room. My wheels and tires are the 37 bfg baja's with 12 bolt wheels

    Yeah I put the lift pump on and bypassed the manual pump, and went ahead and put a 6.5 block off plate with oil return on for when I get a chance to do the turbo. Every time I start getting proud of the truck it goes and shows it a$$ like this in some way.

    Will do. Gonna drop the tank as soon as I have time and change the sock. And work back toward the IP. Thanks for all the help guys.

    Already checked the fitting on the IP, and I blew threw the line to the tank also. the fuel tank sock sounds plausible but it sucks because it is all the way full of fuel. Thanks for the advice. I opened the bleeder with the switch on and it starts out with a strong steam of fuel and the slowly...

    Hey guys I'm new to the site and I've looked through the other post with some similar but not quite the same issues as mine. It started when I went to a tractor show with a load pulled fine all the way there and halfway home. The truck started getting weak and then got to the point where I used...
