    could be.... many years ago I chased a problem with hard starting and rough running, and after a few days, I found electrical tape in the fuel line from the tank to the lift pump.. someone ( dissgruntaled Employee We thought) anyway there was a roll of electrical tape in the tank, once the glue dissolved, well....... now you have mile long snake... sad thought's but possible... keep in touch.. jojo

    operating pressure is between 60-100 psi.. did you crack a line at the head and pump the primer till it leaks of, air will bubble out first.. then lock it back down, 2 lines will be enough to get it to fire...

    one more idea, while you got the hood up, look at the wires coming out of the dist. box, and make sure they havent rubbed through on the edge of the square mounting bracket that it runs through or next to.. i have made that repair a fews times for a 'no-start' issue and such.. jojo

    yes to checking the block grounds, battery, firewall ground breaker, ground posts behind the dash, left corner, and left of the fuse panel on the right.. the block ground goes to the frame behind the left steer tire. 15mm socket and wrench gets it off.. clean any heat shrink glue you see on the eyelets.. it can cause a weak ground by getting between each other... jojo

    have you checked fuse #40 in the dist. box on the firewall to see if it's loose or dirty. here is something else I have posted before... take a good 12v battery, and ground it to the truck with jumper cables and come off the positive with a small wire and power up #40 with a small probe or whatever you have that wont damage the fuse socket, and crank the truck... In a few cases, this showed me that the starter was pulling too many volts, away from the ECM.. this is generally for a 'no-start' condition... I hope my rocket did'nt go too far into outer space here? jojo

    the hand primers suck!!! MP-7 is not replaceable, gotta do a whole pad.. MP-8 can be replaced... 'F' n 'V', are on a good path... jojo

    you can remove it and reseal it, or give Vulva $600.00 for a single aluminum tank kit... jojo

    yes... remove the cup holder first, the the tray it sits in, then the 2 torx screws in the panel ,then the torx screws on each side edge of the panel, then it will drop down and out from the bottom. there is a plastic guide pin in the bottom center edge, to clear.. no biggie.. once it is off,, to the right will be the 3/4" opening where a blue filter may be.. thats were the action happens... I bet the core is packed with dirt... you can try to blow it out, but sh!t will fly everywhere... jojo

    have you pulled the duct on the right side of the of the HVAC unit and cleaned out the dirt that is in there... just remove the screws and and pry it back about an inch and a half. I made a cardboard tube that fits on my shop vac, and flattened it out so it can squeeze in to clean the evap core.. it's gentle enough to avoid damage as long as you are gentle with it... jojo

    its all good.... that is what this site is here for... keep in touch... jojo
  19. Joey Mack
    Amen!

    I really havent ever replaced one unless the wires shook so much, that the insulation fell off.. of course, replacing it isn;t a bad idea. I'm still not clear, why you are changing parts.. what is the issue?
  21. Joey Mack
    I think it's the high pressure switch for the engine fan... the dryer switch is binary for the A/C .. are you having trouble with it? jojo

    the spacer means it's Jacob's...
  23. Joey Mack
    yes sir... one has Jake 690, and the other may be 'Powerleash'.. I'm curios too... If there wasn't an ECM.. this would be a breeze... jojo
  24. Joey Mack
    Yep! Thought so, jojo
