You should tell him to drop by here and read this. Ignorance is no excuse for stupidity.

It sounds like a lack of fuel to me. I mean that is the only thing i can think of but i dont dabble in the vp pump very often. I would be willing to bet money its a lift pump.

how about your moms birthday i think thats what she wants, how much is the truck driven, if its not driven too often i would worry about the guage for now, if you are mechanicly inclined you can do it your self fairly easily and cheaply.

thats about the only fix for it though, the raptor is a good option for less cash, mine works great, fuel pressure is always up there with no problems! it doesn't have the filters though.
