Wouldn't Die
Drove my truck to work tonight, about twenty miles in the rain. When I arrived at work, I turned off key and truck continued to run, as normal? I had to switch key on and off about three times befroe engine would shut off. Any ideas what it could be, or has anyone else ever had this problem?- Ole BlackBetty

I know this has been answered before, but I still need help. I noticed a fuel leak at the bottom of my wix spin on fuel filter and had to remove it to fix the leak. When I pulled the filter, I heard the diesel gurgling back to the tank. I had just replaced my liftpump a few days ago and truck...- Ole BlackBetty
