I think my truck hates me Last friday I was about 5 miles away from where I had to deliver my load All of a sudden my engine dies out and would not restart I had it towed to a truck dealer and was told I had to wait till monday at the earliest to get it worked on
Well they said I needed a new fuel pump New one came in on tuesday It still would not start up So now I gotta get a new ECM That stands for Electronic Control Module Basically the engine will not run without it Verie sad state of affairs
Hopefully it will arrive on thursday It may not arrive until friday [img][http://photos.kitmaker.net/data/500/60ranty.gif/img]

Did both the fuel pump and ECM go out? Are you going to get stuck buying a new pump if it was just a bad ECM?

The fuel pump was bad They didn't discover the ECM was bad until today Thankfully I am a company driver That means the company pays for all repairs on the truck They also pay for a motel if I can't sleep in the truck
