    I’m having issues with my truck cranking Over. Starter works just not holding fuel pressure. After putting starter fluid in it I idéled it for 10 minutes. But the minute I let go of the petal it dies. Anyone have an idea of what this could be?

    You spray a couple seconds of starting fluid, crank starter, motor starts and runs at 1/2 pedal or more? When you reduce pedal below halfway, motor shuts off?
    Does it just turn off like you turned key off?
    Does it snort and buck taking a few seconds or minutes to stop running?
    Does it just rpm slower and slower smoothly until it shuts off. How long?

    Air in the fuel.
    Weak fuel pump.
    Plugged or blocked fuel lines or pickup tube in tank.

    Good luck.
