truck will not stay running after big line kit
Ok so I have a 97 12v with a 1/2" kit from the sender up to the IP. could not get it to run the other day and finally it fired up, would run for about 10 mins then die. Start back up run for about 5 mins and die.
Today I figured ok ill double check all the connections and see what happens. Went to start it, would barely fire over and finally started but I had to keep my foot on it. Now it wont idle. If it does it will for about 3 secs and shut off.
Now everything worked fine until I put this kit on.
The only thing I can think of that could be the problem is either:
I never used a bigger return line.
or
there is a float at the bottom of the strainer of my sender, I never took that out with the drawstraw. Could this be blocking flow?
Any input is appreciated
