    Find the fuel shut off switch (on trucks it is usually above the passenger side kick panel) and make sure it didn't get tripped while the work was being done.

    Hi.........Does it start, stay running?? Or is it hard starting and dies out?? What I'm thinking is that transfer is right near your fuel line for the truck, they might have unhooked/broken it taking out the transfer, most likely.. There isn't much space under there and it's quite possible it got ripped open/out of the truck..

    Good Luck..:-)))

    might've got condensation in the gas tank which can lead to rust in the fuel lines which is blocking the flow of Gasoline

    Should never let a vehicle sit for longer then 2 months bad things begin to happen

    take off and check your fuel line, cause it also could be a chunk of crap got in the fuel filter... that happened to a friend of mine... you let your car sit to long and sediment on your tank settles to the bottom. eventually it should go through and burn up in a nasty smelling black clot of crap out ur tailpipe but also check if the fuel pump is properly plugged in and that a fuse is not blown!!! hope that helps!!!!

    We'll need details to help out. Does it turn over? Is it "really" not getting fuel? Is it getting spark?
