Title: Truck won't start... wierd.
Post by: fRESH_OiL on April 20, 2006, 03:11:06 PM

Okay, So I had El Duende up on jack stands for 3 weeks. I was doing the brakes but didn't reallyy have time and the parts delayed... Well I got him all set up and back on the ground... and what do you know, what was a perfectly great vehicle won't run.  I say it won't run because it is starting... IT has trouble turning over but after 2-3 tries she does, runs for about 3 seconds and poops out in a slow way.

No bad sounds are coming from him so I am pretty sure its not a mech. problem. My first impression is that he was starving for air as I made sure there was no problem there... Now I'm writing this and thinking it could be a pinched line somewhere... but I don't see how I could have pinched a fuel line doing the breaks.

I was thinking the alternator but then if they wasn't working wouldn't the battery have enough juice to keep him going for more than 3 seconds? I mean, if it has enough juice to turn her over...

Tell me what you think, I am going to go plug him into the wall first, see if that helps.

Out of gas ?
I've parked with the trucklet low on gas
and it wouldn't start in the morning.
