I have a flaring tool so I might do the filter anyway. Never k ow what's in the deisel. I changed full filter and that deisel was exactly the same color as the new fuel I put in my can.
Thanx for that. I'm sure they didn't replace the sending unit. I have a 12ft stake body dump so access is easy. After we did everything maybe 8 mos or so ago it ran great then just started that sputtering. I put it under load today, no sputtering, even up hills but some black smoke.

Thanx Marty, I'll check for smoke tomorrow. When this truck was screwed up last year I was looking up stuff and one guy put on marine lift pump In his truck. Not saying I would do it, just saying.
Would the lift pump cause this since it only happens under load and starts right up and running s great wxcept under load? I don't have the bleeder for the fuel or the bracket, been looking. Thanx for your help and knowledge. I'm a contractor and only some of this stuff from my buddy working on...
