Need Help Wont Start!!!
Need Help Wont Start!!!
2005 stock. Fuel filter replaced 2000miles ago. Today stopped at my parents and my father tried starting. I thikn he mashed the pedal as he did. Well it wont start now. Tried letting it sit and couple hours...Noticed when trying the the only gauges that move when trying to start are the tach and speedo. Fuel gauge needed etc never moves. Tried adding 10gal fuel and still nothing. The low fuel light still comes on (I know it wasnt empty) Turns over and jumps and rattles but never fires. Seems like no fuel getting up. But with the gauges not working either I am clueless. Any help before I have it towed? Thanks
These new trucks are supposed to be self-priming. Try bumping the starter several times. Each time you bump the starter you should be able to hear the electric fuel pump run for about 20 seconds. Your electric fuel pump is in your fuel tank on the 2005 but you should still be able to hear it. After several starter bumps, try to start it. Don't run the starter for more than 30 seconds.
If that doesn't work, you can get the codes out of the computer by turning the ignition switch on/off/on/off/on and then read the codes in the odometer window.
Don't be too harsh on your dad. Mashing the pedal to the floor shouldn't make any difference.
