I got back to it this weekend after letting the truck sit for a week. I ordered a new lift pump and a bunch of new filters just to insure I would not need any of them. I pressurized the fuel tank and cracked the bleeder on the pump. No fuel. I cracked the inlet banjo on the pump and fuel came...
Thanks all for the help so far. I did try cracking the injector lines. The injector lines and the bleeder provide no fuel when pumping the primer or cranking the engine. The only time I got fuel to the bleeder was with air pressure into the fuel tank. Before I pressurized the fuel tank I did...
I tried that bleeder per the TM and earlier posts. pumping the primer on the lift/transfer pump did not produce any fuel from the bleeder. Neither did cranking the engine for some time. Pumping the primer did produce fuel from the banjo fuel inlet to the injection pump.
I don't know why it is...
I cracked the banjo for the feed line at the IP. I can push the primer and see fuel come out. I closed that and cracked the injector lines on the IP and cranked the engine. No fuel.
Just the small motor mounted filter. no in line filters. The filter felt like it spun up correctly and mated well with block. What I cant figure out is the truck ran fine. Even sat for 6 months and fired up instantly. Then I changed the filter and all of a sudden nothing. Is it possible that the...
I cracked the line per what you guys and the TM said. Pumped and cranked. Nothing. I pressurized the tank and fired it off with either. It ran poorly but on diesel for about 30 seconds then died. The old filter was a fram the new one is a napa/wix. At this point all I can say is its either the...
I did not. That is something I have never had to do on my 5.9. With as similar as the 8.3 is to the 5.9 I did not think that was necessary. I can try that tomorrow.
I've never used the shut off lever. I will look in the TMs to see how to reset it just to be sure. I have no idea how I could have hit it while changing the filter though.
I started the truck a dozen times today. It always fires up instantly. The last thing I did was change the fuel filter. I primed it for some time with the primer on the lift pump and the truck will not start. Does not catch either. I cranked it for some time too. I took the new filter off and it...
