ROUGH DIESEL
I HAVE A 2001 POWERSTROKE AUTO WITH 30000 MILES. HAD SOME WARRANTY WORK DONE RECENTLY AND HAD THEM SERVICE MY TRUCK , FUEL FILTER , TRANSMISSION ETC
I AM 30 MILES FROM THE DEALER SO DRVE IT HOME , NEXT MORNING I HAD TO CRANK IT A LITTLE LONEGER TO START IT , WHEN IT STARTED, IT SHOOK AND ACTED LIKE IT WAS ONLY RUNNIG ON HALF THE CYLINDERS, AFTER ABOUT 15 SECONDS IT DIED, WHEN THRU THE SAME PROCESS FOR ANOTHER 15 SECONDS, DIED AGAIN. RESTARTED IT AND AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS OF SHAKIN IT SMOOTHED OUT TO ITS USUAL IDLE. DHIFTED TO DRIVE AND IT WOULDNT MOVE .THERE WAS TO RESPONSE TO THE ACCELOATOR. IT JUST IDLED AT NORMAL SPEED. ABOUT A MINUT LATER IT FINALLY WOULD MOVE . TOOK TI TO THE DEALOR, THEY HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS AND COULD NOT FIGURE IT OUT. I AM NOT MUCH OF A MECHANIC BUT TO ME IT SEEMS LIKE THE FUEL IS DRAING BACK AND GOT AIR IN THE SYSTEM.. IT ONLY DOES IT ITN THE MORN. WHEN IT SAT ALL NITE. ONCE IT STARTS IN THE DAYTIME, ITS RUNS FINE ALL DAY. SJE
