    Fuel system issue

    Works for now, no leaks. Couple weeks I'll order some J844 and fittings to replace that whole line

    Fuel system issue

    Got something figured out. By 'figured out', I mean redneck style lol I do still have to verify that what I did will work but I'm fairly confident it'll work. My neighbor had a 1/2" MNPT compression fitting for 1/2" tubing so we put it in the drill chuck and ground enough of the threads off...

    Fuel system issue

    **** fitting stripped out when I finally got everything together. Going to have to find a fix for this, but it'll probably be down till next month anyways. I might just wait anyways so that I can I get the J844 type B fittings and hose for it instead.

    Fuel system issue

    I got the old fitting for the fuel line itself loose, cleaned it up and rethreaded it into the pickup tube fitting and tightened. Still leaked, but far less, and this time only at the base of pickup tube. Tried to take it off, but wasn't thinking at first and wrenched in the middle where it is...

    Fuel system issue

    To get it home I had to put pressure to the tank, once I found the right amount lol it was a fiddly dance of too much and too little. But I got the truck and a few other things home after losing a few gals of diesel. I might try to fix it today, but if I can't it's not a big deal, since I have...

    Fuel system issue

    Well I got it back home, only took a few times of losing its prime once I put some air to the tank. Found the leak though, the fitting at tank. Going to look into a better solution.

    Fuel system issue

    I was just putting it up there on what I came across, mind you everything that was done was at night so it wasn't easy to see anything. I suspect the primer lift pump but I want to make sure that it isn't a break in the fuel line somewhere first. I can do that with the air pressure as well as...

    Fuel system issue

    Last night I went out for a ride and quickly found myself stuck and stumped. I hit a bump that didn't look rough, but bounced us around like popcorn in the cab. A short distance after that the truck died with no notice. Fuel tank was still full (3/4-7/8), so I figured to see if if there was air...
