Hi Gang! I have this Issue. I can start and use the truck all day.
Next day I'll start it and it sounds like it's starving for fuel. So I shut it down. Then try again in a little while. Same thing. Try agian later, Same?
Then I'll start it the next day and use it without a problem.
The Fuel pump and filter are new
I did Run that Yack Bio Diesel for a while a couple of years ago and then never again. The Dogs in the Neighborhood chase me Like I'm the Ice cream man cause it smelt like a Chinese Take out. #7.3 Pick up

Best I can Figure is she needs some System cleaner, Like sea foam?

Thanks for any suggestions

 

How's your fuel tank? It could be that you need to perform a Hutch Mod. Is your fuel level 1/4 or lower? You could also try pulling the line off the rear of your fuel pump and blowing some air into it, there could be stuff clogging your intake in the tank.

 

Tank is a bit over 1/2 right now. I just used it 2 days ago. At least 70 Miles
Next day this Issue.
I have used it many times with No problems. Then it does this again

Not sure what the tank Looks like. I have put 78K on this truck with tank untouched.

 

There is a Hutch Mod for the tank, you can find it easy in a search and many do it, I need to. I had the same experience. Mine was running fine and one day I hauled heavy with it for a few hours and it started to die when I got close to home. Shut it off for a while and problem let up, didn't completely cease. Got home, got advice to blow line out from pump back (temporary fix) and it worked. I know that I run out of fuel at 1/4 tank, which means the foot/screen is broken of in the tank and I figure that the heavy pulling and sucking more fuel up sucked in some dirt out of the tank. That sounds like what yours is doing to me.

 

Thanks for the suggestion
looks like I will Blow the line and cross my Fingers
I think she knows i'll be selling her and is a Bit Pissed off

 

Forgot to mention that the Fuel gauge was stuck in the Full position when it was not full. That is reading correct now

 

So that is why I ran out at 1/4 tank. Thanks

 

Damn, we got problems! LOL

 

Thank you Walleye Hunter!!

OK, I Blew her Good
She is happy for Now. when ya figure I'll have to Blow her again

 

yup shes a pissed at ya...too bad I can't taker, course I don't think Stinky Jr would like having another 7.3 to share road time with...

 

HAHAHA....Can't **** off Stinky Jr

we been together for quite some time. Her Complexion is shot and she put on some weight.....But I still love her

 

Redneck runnin boards

 

I have no idea how long it will last and I would expect that each case would be different.

 

True, Hopefully more than once month like the Flow. I she misses a period, i won't mind

 

MY TRUCK SHUT OFF WHEN RUNNING FOR LESS THAN 10 MIN, IT TURNS ON RIGHT AWAY AND, RUNS FOR ONE BLK TURNS OFF AGAIN , ITS A HEAD ACHE?
