Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) getting frustrated with fuel pressure

[Azhuskcarr]

allright, here I go again!!! Per some of the other member sugestions I check the schrader valves to make sure they weren't sticking. I checked my BH gauge and it was working. Fuel was coming out of the schrader valves when i depressed them. I even cycled the starter to make sure the lp was running. I then hooked up the gauge and it read "0". Doesn't matter where I hook it up, I'm getting nothing. I'm I doing something wrong???

Guess the next thing to do is change out the fuel filter, and try checking it again. Oh well, just had to vent a little.

You might want to try attaching just the schrader connector to make sure the connector is engaging the valve core. I seem to remember that some folks pulled the core when connecting fuel pres. gauge to schraders.

I'll second that........

Pull the schroeder out. Then there wont be any doubt that there's flow. Make sure the gauge is good also. Push some air into it with a compressor and make sure it's working.

Hey Garrett....

Seems like it's been awhile since you've posted. Good to see you back.

Been lurking mostly.........

Got real busy on a few projects and haven't been playing with the trucks that much. Both are built to the level I want so now it's just maintenance and checking in here to see if anything new comes up.
