Help Needed Truck wont start

[mustangmuscle]

Changed fuel filters now truck wont crank. There is no fuel in upper filter houseing. I cycled the key several times and it wont fill. Should I poor fuel into houseing?

Do you hear the fuel pump running when you cycle the key? If not you may need a new pump. The pump is located in the first fuel filter housing. In fact the housing is the pump housing.

Truck ran fine before I changed filter. Only changed filters because water in fuel light came on

Thats why. I dont know what has to be done. But the 6.0 fuel system was designed to shut down if water got in the lines before it could get to the injectors.

Where did you hear that? NOT TRUE! There is no shut off for water in fuel, only the light.

YouTube - 7 3 vs 6 0 vs 6 4 POWERSTROKE ENGINES 2 OF 4

After listening to this dude talk for 30 minutes I found it.....
I was mistaken, that is how the 6.4 was designed not the 6.0.

Just trying to keep bad rumors from getting started.
