Hey guys. Got a weird problem here Truck will start as normal hot or cold run about 30-45 seconds and die. After it dies it take 10-15 pumps on the primer and it will start back up. If I start it and bring the rpms up to 800-900 for a minute it stays running I'm thinking low pressure fuel pump but not sure. Truck runs normal and makes full power. No codes. TIA
Seems like fuel is leaking back/sucking air. Main culprit I’ve found is the line from the Davco to primer pump. Probably need a clear line installed to diagnose.
I guess so. Then something else will happen. Its all over the TTR. If you buy a Truck without warranty, over the milage/years, it really just one problem after another. Take it easy. Handle them as they occur, thats why they have mechanics and shops.
Key word here is Maxxforce, thats the problem they are junk after 500,000 miles apparently the tranny is no better....is it an ultrashift ??
Well i was being generous, maybe 300,000 before the EGR starts self-destructing itself and destroying the gaskets ...
Oh i forgot too the maxxforce is famous for regening all the time, which also eventually fries the head gasket, i remember hearing they even get stuck in regen mode and can't clear the soot....
