Hi all,
Truck in the last week started and sputtering in fourth gear, no power, if I shift a gear down to third sometimes the power returns. Other wise I have to rev the engine a few times then the power returns.
3b engine
Changed the fuel filter.
Drained the water separater.
Exhaust temp won't go over 900F when symptoms occur.
No smoke.
Cut the fuel filter open and found fine rust particulate.
Is my fuel tank full of crap?
Or is the pump on its way out?
Any ideas?
Thanks all,
Jon
