Props to Brad and Chet
Went up to Brad's this morning to fix my truck. After it shuddered and stumbled and died a week ago with about a 1/4 tank of fuel, Brad was doing the right thing and initially got me in the CPS, IPC sensor, and IPR direction based on data I sent him from Torque Pro. Chet chimed in and asked about fuel. Brad said AHA, sounds like the fuel screen pickup and fallen off the pickup tube.
So we dropped the tank and opened it up. Brad properly diagnosed the problem. The fuel pickup screen had broken off so and it was sucking air.
Truck already had the Hutch & Harpoon kit installed, no telling when. So we extended the pickup hose to about 1/4-1/2" off the tank bottom and put her back in.
All thanks to Brad and Chet for their expertise.
We enjoyed the conversation over a lunch, on me, for their good samaritan attitude and great efforts on my behalf. The least I could do for a couple guys time and knowledge on a holiday weekend.
All the guys here are awesome. Thanks

For the record, Craig’s truck already had the tank mods done, but the pickup tube didn’t extend to the bottom, so when his pickup foot fell off, he was out of fuel at a quarter tank.
