You need to remove all of the fuel from the tank and lines, then replace with fresh fuel. Today's gasoline, especially those with any percentage of Methanol in them will not stay in storage very well past 6-8 months, sometimes less in bad weather conditions.

    Also reset the emergency fuel shut off switch in the trunk and the fuel pump fuse. During the initial start up you may have had a higher than average amp draw by the fuel pump to re pressurize the fuel system.

2001 F350 Charging problems

actually the only thing i can recomend is to have the alternator replace again for warranty and before starting the truck charge the batteries very well with a baterie charger make sure to charge them individually because with a low batterie the alternator has to put a lot of load and might burnt again
specially with dual batterie.
