I took my 2002 Ford F 250 7.3 Diesel to the dealer for the recall of the cam sensor, maybe coincidence but twice now I have parked the truck on a slight slope nose down and after only 10 to 20 minutes it wouldn't start? The way I got it to start last time I removed the fuel filter. It started right up. Could the cam sensor cause an intermitent problem of this nature?? :mad:

I have a 1995 f250 with a 7.3L engine that has been sitting for approximately 3 months. When I parked it, it was just starting to chug when I cut it off and it will not start ever since. I have changed the cam sensor,fuel filter and air filter and it still won't start. I am at my wits end. Is this a commmon problem? I have heard that it was. Can you please provide any information to help me.
