Not sure whats going on, my batt. died because the kids left the lights on and after i charged the batt. I go to start it and I need to pump the gas a little to get it going. Then it doesn't want to hold a idle unless I rev it up for awhile or drive it around the block. Then holds the idle fine, but when I shut it down and start it up the same thing happens.

Any help would be great


thanks,
Jerry

You probably need a new battery - these trucks don't like weak batteries at all.

Get the battery tested. Regular car batteries don't like getting completely drained, and a lot of times never recover.
