won't start
Yahoo Message Number: 110040
Our 2000 LD started this morning for a few minutes and then stopped running. We tried replacing the fuel filter. It turns over but just won't start. We know it is getting gas since the old fuel filter was full. Any ideas?  Thanks for the help.

 Well, if you know you're getting fuel, the next question is "Are you getting spark?"

Have you been doing any other work on the coach? If you have, check around the area that you were working and make sure nothing got accidently disconnected. Look under the hood and check all vacuum lines.
 Also could be your fuel pump...even though fuel was in the old filter if the pump is not working fuel will not be sent to the engine. I know you probably already checked, but is there adequate fuel in the tank?

thank you Robert. It ran yesterday and just wouldn't start this morning. The fuel did get very low before I refilled it. We might need to check the fuel pump like you say. Do you know where it is located?
