Starts fine, runs strong, then stalls. restart only after fuel overflow valve reset

Posted

1998.5 24V It starts fine and quick, runs strong then the fuel pressure will fluctuate and it stalls. It will not restart.  I found the fuel overflow valve is getting stuck in the full open.  Replaced the fuel overflow valve but it keeps happening. If I push the ball on the overflow valve it will start again.

I don't think your troubles are like the time I had fluctuations in fuel pressure after going thru everything. Could not figure out what it was I had been thru both trucks fuel systems completely i.e.  new Raptor pumps,draw straws, big line kits, removed tank basket screens, everything. Trucks didn't shut down, but 2-4 bounce with the fuel pressure. Then Mopar Man had me run the regulators pressure adjustment up and down a few times with the trucks running. That stopped the problem.

 

Another Thought.... I've only heard of the tank vent cogging 4 times since reading the forums.... you might try running with the fuel cap loose see if the works. Just a maybe is all
