Archived Engine Starts and Dies 04 - 3500

[jelag]

I've read about this here... just can't find the thread or the answer... .



My 04 is sitting 230 miles from here along side the road... .



The engine starts and dies... . I went out last night and picked up the driver and trailer...



It starts and runs fine... . and about 10 seconds later dies...



It's got fuel and an extra lift pump at the tank... fuel in the filter... something is turning off the fuel... .



It seems to be switching from the start mode condition to run mode... . and when it goes to run mode it dies.....



You can maybe drive the empty truck 150 - 200 ft before it dies... .



No codes or check engine light yet... I've got time today to grab a part or 2 and go to it... any suggestions.....

Crank sensor?? I would think that would throw a code.

Mebe a loose connection to the crank or cam sensor? Have you tried the good old on-off three times method? that should show you any codes that were set in the past...



good luck.

First thing I would do is change the fuel filter.
