Happened yesterday first time ever starts idles high then goes down in to low Rpms and chokes out right away was able to get it driving yesterday. Now won't drive at all just dies right away Some throttle right away but nothing once the Rpms start dropping. Fuel pressure from before the fuel filter is where i unhooked it to check. No idea what's going on its Mother's Day and I'm 3 hours from home.

Have you changed your fpdm above your spare tire ?

Check engine light? Codes or pending codes?

colevig

No codes. Haven't changed my fpdm was leaning towards my throttle body being bad but not sure... Auto store opens at 9 and I am limited in tools

Fpdm would be my guess. Mine acted similar before it crapped completely out.

These things need to be in everyone's onboard spares kit, IMHO.

good luck!

Wouldn't my truck not start at all? Mine will constantly start just won't stay running

MGD

No - it may still start, just not run for long/run poorly. Depends how badly it's compromised.

Do not think it the TB - they usually throws codes.

My fpdm caused similar conditions as well. Stupid things, it is an easy fix though. Drop the spare tire and take a look at it. A lot of the time it is pretty obvious that its bad.

Yea I can see the fpdm from behind my spare and it doesn't look great. It's got two bolts and a plug running into it correct?
