Re: Close to disaster

The truck had not been running just the pump running for all that time. That was the pin for the feed to the fuel pump. I suspect stuck relay or signal/signal wire from ECM telling relay to stay closed after shutting the truck off. I dont recall hearing the pump running when I shut the truck off but was long after going into the house I strted to hear the strain of the pump. sounded like a pump running dead headed, but this was running to the regulator and by passing back to the tank but struggling after all that time.
I do know warm relays are pretty normal. This was HOT HOT.
relay is a rated at 35a from what I'm finding only while looking for a replacement.
