The last rip my truck, 1994 7.3T made was June of 2020, drovec195 miles each way to lake for a week of camping, healing a 12 foot overhead camper with no trouble on trip. I have started truck in drive a few times in the past 2 years, other than an occasional dead battery she always started. In preparation to get some new tires I took the camper off about 3 months ago and had no trouble driving out from under it. Parked it on other side of yard and it set there until now. I went out to start it Monday this week and wouldn't start, just crank and crank. Charged batteries , pulled fuel filter, only half full, leveled off fuel filter with atf and put it back on, cycled glow plugs and cranked nothing. Shot of starting fluid and she finally started, ran rough as he'll died after about 15 minutes. Came home today, put diesel additive in full tank, pulled filter filled with atf, cranked, nothing, add starting fluid started, ran rough, left running for about an hour, still rough, died, restarted once, died again, will not start. I gave up for the evening.
