"I braked hard in order to avoid hitting the guy infront of me that slowed down for no reason then coasted to a stop. It turned over fine but no start." terracoma would you be listening to noises if you were in this situation ? and it wont always make a noise depending on where...

well it could be multiple things that could pop loud enough to get herd = timing chain,fuel pump arm getting snapped,gear popping in front cover ect. . pump locking up snapping the gear or bolts there is many things that could cause be loud enough and kill the truck at the same time

you ever think about soda blasting ?

man yea i bet that did scare you it would have me too because ether is like crack to an engine one time i went to go work on a dozer and there was 7 cans rolling around the cab and then they couldn't figure out why it lost compressionauaaua

yea its got a pin hole in it somewhere or it has filled with fuel best way i know of is get you a something like a clear cup fill it with gas then stick the float in real slowly and look for bubbles
