Fuel Filter Light Comes on & Truck Dies

[Bio-Bradley]

I've been busy with life and finally got finished with this project, at least I think. She runs good. Idles and runs at rpm without dying now. That's great. I get fuel from the front and the rear tank, now that the fuel lines are hooked up correctly. I've got B50 in the front tank and diesel in the rear tank. Unfortunately, the right rear brakes are sticking and smoking while I drive, so I haven't driven it but a few miles. Damn, if it's not one thing, it's another! The brakes are an aftermarket disc setup. Beginning research on which caliper setup fits. Will probably reach out with questions if I can't problem solve it myself. Thanks for the help so far!

If they have parking brake actuators built into the caliper the is only one logical choice..... Cadillac Eldorado. Google disc brake conversion kits for our trucks many people sell them but they all come down to van rotors, custom caliper brackets, and caddy calipers with park brake or Chevy PU front without.

I had the exact same problem idled all day long but couldn't run above 1500 rmp with our doing exactly as your describing.

I have replaced everything but the high pressure pump and steel fuel lines, and my tank is clean I've checked it. But I traced it to a air leak, I fixed that.

But now I can drive but if I run it at 2k and above it will eventually have the light come on and run bad and do as it did before but it's a lot more forgiving. The light will come on and if you drop the rmps it will go off and be fine, Big issue on hills tho were u need to give it gas

I was thinking I may have a small air leak now either from some where else or the same spot I repaired, but now after reads y'all's discussion i believe it cold be a line obstruction
