UGH! why is it happening to me.
hi, i have had a few problems with my truck lately. i just got the last t-maxx fuel tank in stock in my whole province. and it was running perfectly before i broke the tank. i spent 2 hours trying to get it to get goping, the longest i had it run is about a minute, but mostly it runs about 10 seconds and its hard to start. ive primes. un hydrolocked and all sorts of things to get ot going. i dont think theres enought preessure from the muffler to push the fuel in. i cant understand it. what could be the problem.

Try a new glow plug. Take yours out put it on the blue wire and attach the EZ start, it should glow bright red theoughout the entire coil. Also, the EZ starts are notorious for having the glow circuit burn out. Ours went 2 starts before it died.

just a guess...
You said you broke your original tank.
Are you running a fuel filter? Im a newbie at this, but maybe when you busted your tank, before it died you sucked some **** in it. That would gore out you cylinder and wall and would cause the problems your having.
Thats an expensive bummer! If so you should get a fuel filter inline and maybe one of those aluminum tank gaurds!
