wanted to take a minute to thank everyone who helped with my problems... I am no longer banging my head on the fenders, she now kicks over with lil effort.:thumbsup: now onto the annoying TLC things that need doing, I am looking for a decent place to pick up replacement fenders for the rear, since my brother had no clue how to drive a dually and about beat the fenders off the thing. got a new windshield coming next week, and today I am taking the bed off her, to try and re-connect the rear tank. I do not see any major problems right off but fear the worst as my brother is not known for having any mechanical apptitude... Again thanks to all

Glad to hear you got it going! What ended up being the problem?

I replaced the fuel pump and fuel filter, and she started cranking just fine. So I am guessing it was my fuel pump failing. as for my problem with fuel backing up the filler tube whenever I tried to put fuel in it. Well after a 2hr fight to single-handedly remove the bed on my truck to get to the tank, I found the source of my problem there, I had a tank so full of diesel that when I tried filling it, it could not fit in the tank, lol. I felt terribly stupid... so now it is a problem with my gauge. I am not really sure what that problem could be, but I am gonna do some research and find out if I can figure out why my fuel gauge reads empty and I have a full to the max tank... Now I am having a slight problem with the Power Steering Pump, but I have another thread on that issue, hopefully it will be a simple repair . . .
