Sounds like a diesel. Might post question over there. Which 30 amp fuse in the fuse block? As a guess, sounds like a malfunction in the heater circuit.

Thanx for the response and I did neglect to mention that I had 7.3 diesel. any way i did replace the glow plug relay and that's when i found out the fuse was bad cuz the wait to start light never did come on.

Unplug the fuel bowl heater, replace the fuse and you'll be good to go.

The fuel bowl heater plug is on the back center area.
