    Dies after start up.

    I just went through a similar situation. I turned out to be a broken black part in my fuel tank. I dropped the tank and found it in pieces blocking the end of the pickup tube. Then pulled the tank selector off. Also was clogged with smaller pieces. Truck runs better than it ever did and I have...

    Stalling, starts right back up?

    I just changed the oil 2000 miles ago along with the fuel filter. 3 days ago I drained the water seperator. I will change the cps next. Will post if that fixed it. Thanks Mark

    Stalling, starts right back up?

    02 7.3 powerstroke 60,000 miles. Stalls some times everyday, but hit the key and it will fire right back up and run for hours. Maybe a cps, does that stand for crank position senser or cam position senser? Thanks guys.

    Bleeding the fuel system

    Yes 200 miles to get the air up to the bleeder. Or am I sucking air from somewhere else? But it only does this when I open the fuel system to do a repair or change the fuel filter.

    Bleeding the fuel system

    Every time I change or remove the fuel filter I bleed the system. But after 200 miles in dies and I have to bleed it again to get it started. Why does it take so long for the air to get up there? After the 2nd bleeding it is fine till I open the system for service.

    Frozen fuel filter?

    So the filter was clogged or had water in the bottom and froze. What turns on the fuel filter light? I had the truck 3 weeks and it was doing this slightly going into 3rd gear. Another new guy question, does the seperator drain the water itself out the little hose on the bottom of the filter?

    Frozen fuel filter?

    Plugged the truck in for 2 hours this morn, went down to 11. Started good. Warmed it up and left for work. I had twice the power I ever had before! Then the fuel filter light came on.
