Reset the computer & check the fuel PSI. You may want to replace the gas filter. when u run dry, the filter picks up all the dirt at the bottom of the tank. Make sure your gas PSI is good before u get into electronics. start w the basics. That would set that code too trying to start dry.Good luck

It depends on the vehicle. 9 times out of 10 this code means the thermostat has failed, of course I'd try that first. I do not know what mechanical skills you possess or what type of vehicle you're asking , so I can't really answer the second part of the question. Some tstas are easy, other ones require a lot of work.

Check to see if the panel fuel gauge is showing the correct amount of fuel. If that's ok then the fuel tank float may be bad.

There is no magic fix button on your truck. You will need to perform standard diagnostics on the truck to determine the problem or, if you do not know what steps to take, have a competent mechanic diagnose it for you.

May be two pump fuses plus a relay. All should be in main fuse block under hood I think.

I would say more than likely it the radiator cooling fan. For some reason some vehicles, no matter what temperature, the cooling fan clutch engages which makes the cooling fan run at full speed like there's no fan clutch. It sort of makes it sound like the engine is revving up but it's simply the sound of the rushing air from the fan clutch making the cooling fan spin at full speed. Hope this helps.

the e-brake cables could be sticking and not returning all the way free them up and adjust the cables. also you may have worn brake shoes or they need to be adjusted.

check for any fuel leaks. burning that much fuel it should be running very hot. check the float on your fuel gauge maybe your only using some of the fuel in the tank. some times the float gets stuck or has a small hole and fills up with fuel.

fuel relay is in fusebox under hood

The two large straps hold the tank under the truck. You will need to raise the truck up enough that you can not only get under it but also have room to get the old tank out and get the new tank in. You also need to support the tank after you remove the straps at the fuel lines will still be connected and you do not want to damage them. Now is the time to remove the fuel lines, you will need a special tool that releases the the fuel lines, it is round and has a slit up one side to allow it to be placed onto the line. Once the tool is on the line you will push it towards the fat part of the line pushing the extended part of the tool into the locking assembly to release it. The tools are easily purchased at the part store but there are many sizes available so I would suggest getting a kit so you know you have the correct sizes. There are two lines, each are a different size but remove the same way. Most often you will have to work the release tools around as they never release easily. Once you get the fuel lines off you can unplug the electrical connector feeding the fuel gauge and pump and lower the old tank out. Revers the procedure to re install the new tank.You will also likely need to switch over your level sending unit and pump assembly to the new tank. The assembly is the unit the lines plug into and you can remove it by using a small pry bar and hammer to rotate the large ring that holds it in. Again you reverse this process to re install in the new tank making sure the rubber gasket sit correctly for the proper seal. If the tank sending unit is not sealed it will set an evap code and turn the check engine light on. .

Make sure you push down hard on the clutch just for grins then, does the engine just click, click, click? If it does the battery is not dead but it is down enough so that it wont start your car. If all the above is true/right whatever all you need to do is charge the battery. If the above is NOT true/right I need more information. Text me back and I\'ll try to help.......................Bob
