Is it possible I starved the fuel pump somehow cranks but it’s like it’s not getting fuel....

have you tried jumper cables yet? not enough juice to turn it over?



Haven’t tried jumper cables the truck cranks just doesn’t start it will stutter occasionally. Have it on a battery tender. I need to check fuses next just odd that the truck won’t start. Can’t believe this thing is so damn sensitive that I can’t rotate the tires and change the oil without drama. I have exceeded the cranking time now so she sits.

Did you put oil back in it? I know, dumb question, but it may not start with no oil pressure. Does the gauge show any pressure while cranking?

Lol yeah, oil pressure gauge shows where it usually does. 5 quarts came out so filled it with 5 quarts and went to start it to warm it up and check oil level and it sputtered then shut off.

Super odd guess the dealer will have to come pick it up if I can’t find the issue. Has a 1/4 tank of gas so should be getting fuel but that’s how it’s acting like it’s starved for fuel makes no sense.

Are you parked at a weird (steep) angle that the fuel pump isn’t seeing fuel? Not uncommon on the crew cabs when low on fuel and parked at an angle.
