JUST REPLACED MY FUEL FILTER AND SPARK PLUGS. TRUCK WILL NOT START. DID I MISS SOMETHING? TRUCK WAS ON EMPTY. COULD THIS BE PART OF THE PROBLEM? (SINCE REPLACING THE FUEL FILTER I ADDED 2 GALLONS)

need to cycle some fuel into system since you ran it out. to do this, turn the key on without cranking. listen for the fuel pump to buzz. it should run 2 or 3 seconds. when it turns off, turn key to off than turn back on again. do this several times to get the system primed back up and then crank engine to see if it starts.
