    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    Check your fuel supply brass check valve under the truck. Mine was clogged on a truck with 1k miles. The years add up. I straight piped it as the oem valve was not redily available. I had no fuel supply going into my fuel filter housing. Fixed.
