    96 international 4700 stalling

    I just bought truck and was driving home and was running great for about 10 miles and then starting sputtering and isn't getting fuel. It is about 23 degrees and has summer fuel. I took fuel filter off and it blows through fine so it must be from tank? Is there a pickup screen in tank or maybe...

    2010 maxforce 13 fuel prime

    I have a semi that I removed an injector and quill and reinstalled but now it won't start. I tried about 10 times at 5-10 sec cranking, waiting about a half hr between. Not sure how many times I should keep trying if it will ever come to?

    99 ram 1500 brakes sticking

    I replaced the right front caliper and it still sticks hard. If I crack the bleeder screw then it releases. Could the problem be the master cylinder or?

    87 ford f250 transfer case

    It seems to be stuck in 4 low. It shifts fine and took linkage off and shift underneath but it stays in slow speed. I assume I'll have to take transfer case off and take apart since something must have come apart inside?

    How to fix common problem of idi fuel draining back

    I found the original piece that was intake. Don't understand why it has an inlet/outlet on both ends. I believe the pick up screen would go on big dia. Which would make it a check valve?

    How to fix common problem of idi fuel draining back

    Mine looked like this but the screen and what I thought was a check valve was disinegrated and cracked. I was going to take a picture of mine (but can't remember where I put it because of all-timers) it has like an orange needle I thought was a one way valve. Hopefully my ace outfit will work ok...
