Start-Rev-Die!?!
Start-Rev-Die!?!
Hello All,
I was on a road trip with my wife and son yesterday and we stopped at a chip-stand for lunch.
The truck had been shut-down for 20-30 minutes before we decided to leave. When I cranked it over it started... rev'd up to about 2500 rpm then died completely.
I waited a few seconds and tried again... this time is started and settled into a normal idle.
Truck is stock except for XZT+
I'd really like to know if this is an early sign of another problem.
Any ideas?

Sounds like to me you got a shot of air in the system from somewhere that finally worked its way out. I'd check all the fittings and clamps for a loose one if it happens again.
