Hey guys I was having a hard time starting my '09 for about a month.
After doing some reading and some advice from a knowledgeable buddy we determined that air was getting into the fuel lines. The other day it wouldn't start at all.
Figuring I would go with the cheapest fix, I started poking around the fuel filter area after reading this:

I've got all the manuals downloaded and I can see the three switches on the fuel filter housing.
I pulled the top switch to inspect and now I can't get it seated all the way into the housing, which won't let the vent plug seat. When I tried to start the truck it fired up and then died. Fuel was coming out of the vent plug hole...
Am I babying the switch on top? I didn't want to break it, so I didn't use my man hands...
