I have an 84 f250 it starts up idles for about 2 min then will die. It is getting gas to the carb I have a clear filter and it is full. It has a holley 4bbl. Just started happening.

 

When it dies, check if you have spark. Sometimes when electrical parts get warm, they fail due to more strain on the connections. Check for any frayed or damaged wires/connections and maybe have your ignition module tested at a auto parts store.

 

I assume this is a 460 motor with the "Hot Fuel Option" using electric pump(s). If so, just because the clear filter is full doesn't guarantee the pump is running in "Run". The pump "Start" circuit fills the carburetor float bowl. Once the motor starts, the Pump "Run" circuit is supposed to take over and continue to supply fuel at a slightly reduced rate. If there is a problem in the pump "Run" circuit, then the motor only runs long enough to use up the fuel previously pumped to the float bowl.

 

Yes, what size engine do you have?

 

460 engine electric fuel pump the truck will start then die. replaced the ignition module fuel filter it has a Holley 4 bbl. were is the run circuit.

 

We have had so many questions lately on this fuel pump circuit, here's a diagram.

 

Thanks for the diagram.

 

Franklin2,
Please post the diagram as a sticky at the top of the forum. There have been so many questions about the "Hot Fuel" circuits and problems with them over the years that I beleive it's warranted. Thanks,
Ken
