truck died, stuck on road
Looking for some help. Truck died. Stuck on road in South Carolina. Believe it is a fuel issue. Truck unresponsive to throttle or slow to pick up when does respond. When let off throttle stay on current rpm for a second or two. Can hear the fuel the pump running when on the on position. Will not go above 1200 rpm when rev'ing the engine. Check engine light is on. Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

If its mechanical check fuel lines from fuel tanks to engine check all the fittings to make sure they are tight check to make sure both fuel filters are tight. Check to make sure one tank isn't fuller than the other might be a plugged breather on fuel tank sounds like you're sucking air. If it's a computer problem you will need insite my truck had a rev limiter derate in it for something stupid like the egr valve position or something also mine did that once and it was the throttle position sensor but when it was that I also got a Stop Engine light sometimes too. Good luck.
