Possible water in fuel.

I would stop and get some new fuel filters just incase some water got past the fuel/water separator.

 

Dude that happens sometimes. Once you drain the water separator, and it keeps coming back, it's toast. Just do yourself a favor and get it changed before it leaves you someplace you don't wanna be.

Almost truck stop can handle it. Probably $100 bill, no biggie. You gotta drain that separator every few days you know. They say daily, I do mine every 2 or 3 days.

You can tell right away. If you see fuel coming out right away, your good, don't empty the whole thing.

Just do yourself a favor and get a new one. It may have been going bad and you didn't catch it.

 

I carry a spare fuel filter, and water separator filter with me. My water separator is a canister type and not everyone has it. I only have one GIANT fuel filter and it's very common.

But once she starts to lose power, ballgames over.

 

Sometimes it helps to shut down the truck and disconnect the battery for a few minutes. It will reset the computer. Sometimes that helps with minor glitches. If the problem persists then you know it's something that needs to be looked at.

 

There's no seperate fuel for truck and reefer. There's no dye. Both come from the same tank. The ONLY tank/S. Since the reefer isn't acting up. Logic dictates the truck.

Reefers aren't considered off highway use. If someone were to pull you over and dip your tanks. The reefer has to be just as legal as the truck.

Most of us don't carry water seperators and have never had to worry about it. Those usually get changed with the service. Unless it's that plastic bubble on the frame like FL's have. I don't remember the frequency on that one. I think the boss changed that one every other service. !00k miles.

 

Huh? What happens when you drop a reefer trailer and it needs to be kept running, or intermodal on a train car? How does it do it without the truck?

 

He means the tanks in the ground at the truck stop.
