Me again…this truck #%#%*!!!!!

My goodness..... this is not good

 

Stick a hi power flash light in fuel cap hole in top of tank and look for any kind of trash in bottom of tank?

 

I know what you mean company's don't like when you have to cancel all the time. When one of my tri axles goes down the drivers will jump into one of my buddies trucks lucky for me he has 22 tri axles so there's always a few trucks sitting around. If it wasn't for my buddy my drivers would've been long gone.

 

Yeah well you never know about that Pete or any used truck you buy. Someone else I know bought a used Mack and the engine blew a couple months later, then he just parked it. Trucking or hauling is a tough business. Everytime my drivers call I'm afraid to answer the phone besides that they're always bi@@@ing about this and that. I actually hate it.

 

is there a check valve in the Fuel Filter Base ?

 

I think it does, even though the fittings are on the sides, it draws fuel up, in a closed siphon action. Question would be, if it draws from both tanks, or just one. And whether the pick up tube inside the tank is sucking air, or a supply hose has a low spot causing air, and losing its siphon/prime.
