Well I STILL have this hard start that started in october of 06'. I first started by running the codes and I got the P0216, so I replaced the VP44. That did nothing for the hard start, or anything for that matter. Next I rebuilt my leaking holley, that did nothing either. I also installed the draw straw and that did notta. So I've been wanting to ditch the stock fuel fitler/canister for a LONG time so I could run some dual spin filters. Well I got new hose, a few new fittings, spin on filters and bases, new pump and I installed everything last week. This netted me NOTHING. :bang I feel like my truck is just :hehe: at me. :bang
If I park the truck facing down a hill it cranks every time, but if its on flat ground and/or is parked on flat ground for 15+mins(over night or longer) it loses prime and will not crank till about the 3rd time I turn the key over and hold it for about 3 or so seconds.
I'm running the carter 4601HP pump which I know is not very good, but I will be replacing it with a FASS pump very soon.
I did notice the other day when I went to take a Vulcan fitting off so I could put a Aeroquip 90* fitting on that NO fuel drained out from the VP44 or the hose!? The truck had been setting over night and I drove the truck the day before. Does anyone know what could be going on?? :what:
