I stopped at the gas station last night. When I went to start my truck back up it wouldn't start. It cranks over any night but won't stay running longer than one second. What could this be?

Good morning and thanks for reaching out to us. Try this and tell me what happens. You said that the engine will light off when you start it but shuts off immediately. See if you can hold the accelerator pedal down a little bit and keep it running that way. Not a lot of pedal, just a little.

Let me know!
