Out of Gas Info.

Just in case this happens to any of you, I thought I would share my current experience. I was at the mall and started my truck, put it in reverse and Blah...it died. Tried cranking it over...nothing. Popped the hood, checked the fuel filter, primed it and gas started pouring out from the bottom of it. So I checked the WIF sensor, and it was unbelieveably loose. Tightened it up by hand and re-primed. Well after reading the instructions in my book, it says to crank it for 10-15 seconds and let off, repeat until it starts. Well no joke...it took me 35-40 minutes until that dang thing started again. That's a LONG time. So I changed all my filters and fluids today and am keeping an eye on it from now on. But just in case someone else here ever runs completely out of gas.....you're in for a looooooong time cranking until it starts again!
