bad gas...??

[bronco410w]

i went to the gas station "WaWa" and i was on E... i parked , turned off the motor , and got 40 of mid grade " 89 octane "

i went to start it after i paid , and it kept cranking but didnt start.... i did it 3 times ... then i got out kicked the gas tank 2 times.... got back in and it started right back up....

now i drove around for about a hour, i was driving it normal and also got on it a couple of times on the hwy... it felt just fine.... i also turned it off 3 times and it started right back up...

my guess its a lil bad gas, or air in the line... or its the first sign the pump is going...

what do u guys think?

my guess is that you got air in the line

could be a dirty filter as well

yo!

Aside from FP Filter

Could have gotten the in-tank filter (also ref to as a sock) @ pump housing bottom filled w/rust and sludge for a moment

here is a pic of it by JP...

And, the WaWa gas in iffy IMHO... developed a nasty ping due to accumulated carbon.. and MUCHO carbon build-up in EGT Valve, TB,DPFE Hose, etc.

So, we went back to Texaco/Shell now

Another poss. if it occurs again; ck FP/Fuel Sender harness/connector on top of tank; can carefully cut a floor pan section out to get to it and cover with same cut piece plus...
