Ill check mine out tomorrow and let you know what I see around there

Half the rail is under and the other half rail is to the side and accessible. Of course the one with the sensor is under.

That almost looks like a heater core port. Does your heat work currently?

It was indeed the fuel pressure (and temperature sensing) sensor under the intake manifold.

Ill be using your paper towel tube method tomorrow, thanks for the tip! Gotta hunt down that last culprit. But overall its starting right up now and running/idling well & driving too! @Bookworm370

Okay so the problem was after doing the fuel pressure sensor which was underneath the intake manifold, I forgot to reconnect the exhaust pipe to EGR valve. So. That kind of explained the smoke bellowing out. That combined with that it sat for 3 weeks and was flooded with fuel I guess. So...

Hey yooo! So I replaced the fuel pressure sensor today and it started right up. But now it's shooting a seemingly neverending giant cloud of smoke out of the tailpipe & has some liquid (water?) dripping out of the tailpipe too. Never had smoke clouds before.

My truck has a sensor (it's a 2005), not a regulator. Same exact concept though. In fact I changed the fuel pressure sensor 4 years ago. I cant recall why I did that. I put in a real cheap one. 4 years later I'm putting in another cheap one tomorrow lol.

No I haven't checked fuel pressure. Since there's a ton of gas getting in to the vacuum lines it seems pretty obvious it's the fuel pressure sensor so I'm popping in a new one tomorrow.

The stuff in mine is DEFINITELY gas. And in fact I'm starting to lean towards the fuel pressure sensor or something in that area. I'm getting a hot lead on that. Check out this vid: I'm wondering if I have a double problem where I have a bunch of fuel in my vacuum lines (which I do) AS WELL as...

I had a thought that I've flooded the engine by trying to start it a couple times every day. So, I held the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor while trying to start it, to disable the fuel injectors. And... it ALMOST started. But still not quite. Maybe it's getting tons of air from the...

Heres a video of the last time I was able to get it to start @Bookworm370 , you can totally hear the obvious vacuum leak and how it's pulsating. But why would there be gas in the vacuum lines? Specifically this one right after trying to start it.

Thanks so much for your reply! Definitely leaning towards vacuum leak too because I have driven the truck for 5 years and the hissing sound when I WAS able to get it to start was pretty evident. But yeah like you said not apparent. I'll absolutely go check that elbow. However I do have a V6...

BUMP :)

I can't get my truck to start anymore. I had a bad stall out and limped it home with no power brakes. It would stall at every red light. Could barely get it started. But somehow made it home. Had to completely mash the brake pedal to slow down. Scary! Now it's been sitting for 2 weeks and I've...
