just bought a new 07chevy diesel 3 weeks ago. I have been running 50/50 since I brought it home, all fine. Go to costco tonight & wont start at all when we came out. Feels like no fuel is getting to the motor, maybe electric priming pump? dont know. any ideas would be helpful. Thanx

Is it wvo? Do You heat the oil in any way? if not then the oil is a bit too thick and clogged the filter, very likely. Remove the filter refill with fresh fuel or power service start it. Hopefully it's as simple as that.

Heating is a thought but is generally not an isue in Florida. If it was straight bio I would want to heat it. Anyway it was 85-88 out yesterday. My other 2 isuzu box trucks dont have a prob running b100 allmost all year except for late dec to mid feb, when I thin them with 10-20% kerosene. It started 1st thing this morning & ran perfect all day, leaving me with no idea of what really happened.
