    6.2 fuel pump installation.

    Okay weird question, How the heck do you reinstall the lift pump on the 6.2, I know its dumb to ask, but hey I was never from the 1980's. I know what the manual says, I just can't figure it out.

    fuel bleeding problem

    To be honest no I haven't done that yet, I will now that you have said it. I'm sorry I should have went through your reply more carefully, I'm just kinda aggravated by this problem. I will test this tomorrow after I get out of work, and I will report my results.

    fuel bleeding problem

    Um If you read above, I had done that. I applied air pressure to the fuel tank and all i could see and hear was fuel bubbleing and a few drops of fuel spitting out, I did this 3 times. There is fuel in the tank, about 3 gallons.

    fuel bleeding problem

    Okay I finely pulled the lift pump as far as I could......anyway I squeezed the lever and I could hear fuel being pushed to the filter. So then I pressured the fuel tank again with air, and here's where it gets fun. I could hear fuel/air gurgling. I do have fuel in the tank about 4 gallons. I...

    fuel bleeding problem

    I just had a thought, if my fuel pump turns out to be okay and it works. Isn't there a check valve in the fuel line, what is the possibility of it clogging?

    M1009 Runs Cold

    Um thats where i was going with my question, What i was getting at that maybe who ever replaced the thermostat may have replaced it with one that allows more coolant into the engine (A colder thermostat) Some one may have done that because these engines can get a little hot. I remember reading...

    fuel bleeding problem

    I haven't fixed it yet, but i believe i know what and how the problem is. The truck hasn't run in 8 months, and a long time back I had burned bio-diesel, which is great for eating rubber stuff. Recently I put bad diesel into the tank by mistake, I pulled it out, and thats when I attempted...

    fuel bleeding problem

    I'm having a fuel problem. I recently bought new glow plug relay because the old one was shot, but then I decided to replace the fuel filter. After replacing it, I attempted to bleed the system, but nothing happened over 20 tries. I even pulled the air screw, and applied air pressure to the fuel...

    Is it my imagination or is it easier to start and faster acceleration with full tank?

    I really don't see how it could be starting faster. Remember the engine has a injector pump....:D. I would think if it were leaking the truck would be running different. Awhile back my truck needed to have the fuel system bled, and the RPMs were a little jumpy.

    Gen and GP problems

    Sorry maybe I miss worded what I was trying to say. I see that two other people have started other threads similar to mine.
