The Gas Tank was Definitely Submerged Underwater All Night. The Gas Smells Really Good Coming out of the Fuel Rails and I Filled the Tank Right before I Went Down to the Woods. Good Possibility the Fuel is Contaminated Though! What Would I do if That is What's Wrong?

All Fuses Appear OK in The Kick Panel and Diagnosis Box Fuses. There Appears to be One BIG Fuse That I can't Diagnose Without a Volt Meter. The Truck is Still in the Woods. I have to go Down and Start Wrenching again in the Rain.

I Drove it Home! It Starts But Needs a Jump start. The Truck Drives About 5 Minutes and Stalls Then I re-Jump Start it and it Lasts Another 5 Minutes. I Think it Needs an Alternator What do You guys Think? I am Going to Swap all Fluids and Do an Alternator. Oh Yeah, I Talked with Mark Vanmeter/Formula36Toy he Was nice Enough to Give me a Call! He is a VERY Knowledgable Person! Thanks for the Help Everyone on Yotatech and Mark!

No, the Tranny Fluid Looks Really Good! Swapped the Diff Fluids, Motor Oil=Milkshake!, Gas. I had to Get a New/Used Computer Cost me $100.00 But My Truck Now Runs Like New! It is out in the Garage with a Nice Coat of Armor All on the Interior. This is One of the Cleanings that you have to do In Cycles! I powerwashed the Whole Inside of the Truck Minus the Dash and Electricals Shop Vaced For Hours! And Will Do over in ACouple of Days When Everything Dries out Again.

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR GETTING MY RUNNER BACK IN ACTION!

P.S I WILL BE JOINING OHTTORA AS SOON AS I GET MY RIG BACK IN ORDER!
