Thread: Hey KDavid1,

I've tried cranking since it cooled off. Nothing. I don't believe it's getting fuel. I'm going back armed with a you tube video on how to prime it, check for air leaks, and/or replace the fuel filter and/or housing if necessary. I'll let you know how this works. I think I can, I think I can, I think....

Nothing to it

If it has electric fuel supply pump, check fuse. Has to be fuel related.

What year model? The DEF sensor will let it run, just not fast, enough to get u out of the road. I put those TransTec code scanners on all mine. You can read the codes running down the road, under load. I got mine from China for $54, but Advance Auto has them for about $75.
I have 4 older Ford diesels, 7.3's, IDI's, all with over 300 K on them. I'm Scared of the new ones. They added a bunch of sensors on the new ones and they can go bad. The newer gas engines are just as bad. Friend spent $1200 just to have plugs changed!!

It was the fuel system. Needed a new fuel filter housing.
