RE: Weird problem after 2nd tank fill-up on 6.7
Thanks for the help guys.. definetely made me feel better. I hope I didnt hurt anything while driving like that because I went few times 75% throttle to see if the problem was gonna go away.. so boosted a bit.. hopefuly I didn't run lean or anything like that.. (I drove a mile to home where the things got better once I shut down the engine and re-started in my house..

RE: Weird problem after 2nd tank fill-up on 6.7
Here are a few things I can think of. Did you fill it with ULSD or LSD? If you filled with LSD your new 6.7L engine may not like good old fashion diesel. Also being I have a friend who hauls fuel from the tank farm to stations I hear about some of the screw ups at the tank farm and screw ups of someone putting the fuel in the wrong tank at the station. The one I like is where at the tank farm some one gets gas mixed in the diesel tank and vice versa or #1, Kerosene, Jet A has got mixed in with diesel. When it happens they sure as hell are not going to shut down the pipeline to ship it back to the refinery they just mix in more diesel or use additives.

I'm sure your fine memo.Besides, you've got a warranty. I'm SURE they'll honor it with no problems at all.

. Thanks for the input and help. This gas station is the only one that sells ULSD within 5 miles from my house. It just happened for the first mile but now the car is running like it is suppose to.

That might have been the thing that happened to me. I drained the fuel filter and re filled it and it ran smooth again as well as the engine light turning off. It hasnt had a problem since. Except mine didnt happen right after i filled up.
