Need a hand from my IDI buddies. My truck is 7 miles deep in the Dixie Nat. Forest, and it died when I was letting it idle to warm up while we cleaned up the camp. Didn't switch tanks when I should have, and it ran the rear dry.
I figurEd I needed the old crank-to-prime, (front tank is full) but two batteries worth of ten seconds on two minutes off didn't do it. I have air spitting out at the schrader, so I suspect it's sucking it in between the tank selector valve and lift pump.
What I need to know is hose/ line size I can pack into the woods to fix the air intrusion while laying on my back in the pine needles. I got it to fire once for a few seconds, after half hour of cranking, it raced, then died. I also fried the starter switch and have to hotwire it at the solenoid. Is there a fuse? Fusible link?
Need a shopping list to get what I need to limp back to town, or at least out of the woods to some concrete.
Thanks for looking!
