the problems are never ending it seems like.
i went out to start my truck this morning and it wouldn't start. i switched to the front tank (was on the back) and it started just fine.
i've been using ONLY the back tank for months b/c the front has it's own set of issues that i prefer not to use. it had about 1/4 tank of gas and had been running fine. anywho, i switched to the front, went down to the gas station and filled both up.
been running errands all day, trying to switch back and forth to diagnose. sometimes it'll die immediately, other times i can make it 10 miles before it starts to stutter. once it stutters, if i dont' swtich tanks, it dies.
thoughts on what it could be?
my only guess is that little filter on the pump is clogged with something. when i switch off, suction releases it and driving shakes it away. if that's the case, what can i do about it...without dropping the tank.
i know i need to get my fuel filter changed, but that wouldn't affect only the back tank
EDIT: the title was supposed to be "back tank acting up" or "back tank cutting in/out", not a combination of both
