03BlkSS86 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 So I've noticed lately that my truck seems to be running like crap.At idle it shakes. Its an 03 with 95k. I've done the fuel filter an put an air intake in it. I'm also only running 93 from sunoco. I'm guessing its time for plugs an wires. What else would make it shake an run like crap at idle? Back when i had my pontiac someone suggested a can of sea foam to clean it out. Would that work well with our motors? any suggestions or help is appreciated guys.

SuperStock Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Sounds like you need to clean the mass air flow sensor. just go to the auto parts store and get some MAF cleaner and will be set to go. Its a simple fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireman31 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 give your TB a GOOD cleaning also.. A dirty TB will make it feel as if it is running rough at idle.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex.t Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 might as well do spark plugs while your at it to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03BlkSS86 Posted May 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 before I did the intake I thought I cleaned the TB out good. I guess not. an maybe should try the MAF anyway. thanks for the help guys. Guess this is whats on the agenda for the weekend if the weather is nice.
