stalling problems

Post by 6.2troopy »

hey guys, quick question. driving my truck today it kept stalling when the clutch was pressed in, until finally it just wouldnt kick over again. anyone have any ideas about what could be wrong? it tries to kick over but i feel theres no fuel getting to it. (there is half a tank of diesel in it). any suggestions would be great.

Maybe a air getting into the fuel line. Is it just barey turing over due to a flat battery from cranking it too much? More info would help in giving some ideas

theres plenty of current there. when started it would idle, but as soon as the throttle is touched it just dies. i was thinking air in the lines as well, but there plenty of fuel there. maybe dirty fuel has blocked the lines or something.

crack the injector lines where they screw onto the injectors and see if fuel comes out each pipe only undo them half a turn from tight.
The pump should have a primer but this is a sure way to get the air out.

check your fuel filter while you're at it.
