Just bought my first diesel, so pretty green. 2000 F250 7.3L.
Ran great, then changed out the fuel filter according to chilton's manual. Sucked out fuel on the bottom of housing and cleaned element. Installed new filter. Started engine. No power all of a sudden. Did not fill housing up w/ fuel, so where does that air go? Does it work its way out of the system? Any other suggestions as to what I could have done wrong? Or is this an unrelated issue that is just an extreme coincidence?
Thanks.
