    Several Cranks To Start Cause?

    I'm not trying to save any money at all :D just read a how to bypass the FDC and it said to use DOT 3/8" air line. If that's not a good choice I am all ears, as I was going to mcmaster carrs fuel line section before I read that.

    Thanks, will dig into this tomorrow. Can I use the same dot 3/8 air line for whatever is inside this assembly?

    Yes indeed it is the dump aka Tonk. With ignition on, I can feel the in tank pump running (side note, once started there is a horrible squeal until i turn the ignition back to the off position). The hose from the pump: To inspect this I need to drain the tank or is it simply the external hose...

    Several Cranks To Start Cause?

    Truck was sitting 2 years before I got it. Once running it idles and pulls well, but it takes 2 to 3 fifteen second cranks to start each time. Batteries are fresh, I cant see any leaking from the IP. What would cause it to require that much cranking to start up? I plan to replace the FDC this...
