My truck is a 1999 2500 Quad cab short box, 230,000 miles. Mostly stock, with an Edge comp Box, and the replacement FASS lift pump, the injection pump was rebuilt @50,000 miles ago. . A few months ago the truck began starting hard, would crank till it got fuel. Now it is to the point to where if I have had it running, shut it off, and an hour later it won't start. I have to bump the starter to get it to build pressure again. I noticed fuel leaking around the inj. Lines on the head. I'm told to replace the transfer tube orings... where can I get them? Local parts stores can't get em. Dealer says he has to sell me lines and all. Also, where else might it be losing pressure, or getting air?
