    Went from ROUGH idle to no start. HELP!

    Update Work got canceled for this week (so far) So I replaced the fuel pump and after I finally got the air out of the lines it fired it. But now it runs really rough and you can't give it any throttle at all because it just bogs it down. Also, fuel seems to be coming from around the valve...

    Went from ROUGH idle to no start. HELP!

    New News My pump is now working after I reset the switch. Still no start. Tried to let it bleed off the air in the fuel lines. Still no start. So the last things to check are the oil pump and the glow plugs. Anyone have an idea of where to go from here? Is there a way to check either of these...

    Went from ROUGH idle to no start. HELP!

    I checked the oil first thing. No fuel there. I cant hear the pump running and when I crack the valve and turned the key on nothing comes out.

    I changed to water pump and did the brakes on my truck. I kept running into problems so my truck was down for two days. I was listening to my radio on and off and so my bats were low when I finally went to fire it up. Finally got it cranked and took it for a drive. Seemed fine so I came back...
