I've been told I'm lazy for having a auto feeder but this is exactly how I look at it. Before when I worked late and dinner was subsequently late they'd scarf it down and puke. They don't do that anymore

    This weekend I was replacing the crossmembers in my 2007 f150 and I have determined that, while I've extended the life of it by a lot, I think that I'm in the market for getting a less rusty bed. I have been checking FB marketplace, and I had a good lead on one that was in much better condition than mine for $300. But it was a 5.5 and I need a 6.5.

    So I guess my question is aside from waiting for one to randomly crop up, how can I go about finding one for a reasonable price? I live in a pretty remote place and I'm willing to travel a bit, but I can't really just go check some stuff out on a whim.

     

    Truck gets power and attempts to turn over.

    Which made me think it wasn't the starter or battery.

    Looking things up online it pointed me to the fuel pump.

    I went through and did the whole diagnostics with checking that. Including checking the fuses and relay.

    I found a video saying the fuel pump control module could be messed up, and it looked pretty rusted out so I changed that. But it didn't fix the issue.

    So I going back to the fuel pump diagnostics of the fuel pump, it said to turn the accessory on with the key and you should hear the fuel pump kick on if you put your ear to the gas cap. I did but I honestly don't know what I'm supposed to be hearing.

    I'll probably go ahead and replace it, but is there anything else that I should be checking or what?
