I have a 2001 GMC Sierra 2500 with about 240,000 miles. just a work truck, gets beat on and keeps on chuggin never had a problem. i decided to put the lucas fuel system cleaner in to see if i could pick up a mpg or two. after the 1st tank thru it became really hard to start where id have to crank it over 3-4 times before it would start. Yesterday on the freeway it started stumbling for about 10 seconds then just died and i had to drift onto the shoulder where it wouldnt start again. its not getting fuel now for some reason. got towed home.
not blaming the additive at all as i use lucas in everything and people have had alot of luck with it. any opinions on what may have happened?
did the additive loosen up all the crud in the tank and clog the fuel filter?? thats the only thought i have?
any help would be appreciated, mabye something i can fix myself before i take it to a mechanic.
