    You've got a few dirty injectors. You might wanna drain your fuel tanks and clean them. Injectors are no joke. I just replaced 6 injectors and harnesses in my Cat motor. Costed me $5000 altogether.

    Hi guys.There was no problem running fine.The 2 tanks is connected at the bottom with a pipe between them with a tap to open and close.If you run only on one tank you keep the tap closed till you need more diesel then you open the tap to supply the main tank.The only thing that happened here is that the driver run it till almost empty.He stopped opened the tap and carry on driving for a mile or so.He stopped at the border for a hour then by starting up the truck started missfirring like running on 3 cilinders.He kept on driving for another mile or so.Stopped and when try to start its not firing up at all.There is enough diesel in the tanks.Half tank each tank.
