Silverado 2500 8-cyl Diesel

  • 6,125 miles
Driving towing a travel trailer. Felt a vibration. Pulled over and nothing visible. Resumed but engine had no power. 30 mph max speed. Called onstar and they could find no codes. Tried to continue but no engine power beyond 30 mph.. called onstar again and this time they identified 2 codes. Dropped trailer at a church parking lot. Truck now in reduced power mode and leaking liquid. Arrived at a dealer who identified problem as return fuel line had become disconnected. They reconnected and truck ran normally. Approximately 20 gallons of diesel fuel had leaked during this 8 mile ordeal.
