This truck belongs to one of my cousins .
Month or two ago , the truck acted up , low on power & would not exceed 65 mph . Next start , ran fine .
We were visiting last weekend . It repeated the same symptoms . Both to & from a ~ 50 mile round trip , with one off – on cycle .
A few days latter & crank – no start . My cousin changed the fuel filter & used the manual pump to fill the filter & burp the air from it .
Suggestions , please . We have been searching you tube videos .
Thanks , 🙂

Received an email from my cousin . He said he charged the batteries for 4 hours & got it to start . Let it run for 5 minutes , shut it off & it restarted .
His brother recommended a local mechanic & the mechanic told him it sounded like the fuel pressure regulator or pressure sensor .
My cousin is going to try to drive the truck to the mechanic , tomorrow . With his brother following , in case it quits again .
So , we will see what we will see . Wish him luck .

God blessIt was warmer yesterday . Wonder if the problem is , at least , in part , temperature related ?

God blessA little update . I suppose the truck has been running since my last report .
On the warmer days , he changed oil / filter . Then took it to the mechanic . No codes & the mechanic did not fine any thing wrong / broken .
So , my cousin just called . He was taking the truck home . For now , he says the truck is running fine .
I feel for him . His situation , now is kind of like walking around with no belt . Your pants could drop to the ground at any time . 🙁
Thanks , 🙂
