Power lost again

[PUMPERDUDE]

Thought I had it nailed. When I first lost my power I checked the overflow valve and found the spring cracked. Replaced overflow valve@77 bucks. Truck ran fine for about 100 miles and then boom,no power again. Checked the valve ,it was ok. What next guys?

I would be checking the fuel shut off solinoid and it's relays.

Some times they only pull up 3/4 and will run but have low power.

Feel free to give me a call, 203-753-7223

You da man,Ted

You nailed it Ted. It felt like the solenoid was opening up in steps. After reaching in and working it open by hand and taking it for a ride,it runs like its old self again. When I went to shut it down,piecesof the solenoid fell out from under the hood . I'll try to put it back together . If that wont work,I saw a post awhile back on a manual shut down using a cable. Sounds simple enough to me.

Glad I was able to help, I do stock the updated larger solinoid kit with bracket and bolts.
