Consumer Description

MY LCF DUMP TRUCK BEGAN IDLING A BIT IRRADICALLY. DRIVING THE TRUCK AT ABOUT 40 MPH IT BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND LOSE POWER, UNTIL THE ENGINE TURNED OFF COMPLETELY LEAVING ME STRANDED ON THE ROAD. I OPENED UP THE PRIMARY FUEL FILTER AND FOUND IT TO BE CAKED WITH A SILVER METALLIC MATERIAL. I PUT IN A NEW FILTER AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK HOME, BUT THE ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING AS IT SHOULD. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND A LOT OF DIESEL FORD TRUCK OWNERS WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND IT WAS BECAUSE THE FUEL TANKS WERE DELAMINATING AND GETTING SUCKED THROUGH THE FUEL SYSTEM.
