Default Starts wierd
So when I start my truck it idles funny and shakes badly,if you give it a minuet it will idle out and runs fine. What would cause the rough idle?

Mine starts and runs rough on the front tank only. I'd agree that it is a weak pump. The rear starts and runs fine. Once it's running, the front tank does good.

That's exactly what mon does, my advice is I ur level cycle the key 3-7 times, if ur on a hill then just start off the rear and switch when u get going
