zpaucoin Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Have you done any maintenance or mods lately? One time I change my oil and forgot to put the oil cap back on. It started to do exactly what you described. Never killed but idled low until I figured it out and got a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catdaddy300 Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 well sounds like i am going to have to accually clean that damn thing.... aint going to lie i have been avoiding it like the plauge but sounds like that might be helpful for overall truck health, i also need to check and see if the oil cap is off.... i kinda jumped the gun and poseted this and didnt do any trouble shooting myself, i know i am lazy, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1ss Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Have you changed the plugs an wires at all? I dont think this would be the major cause, but clean the maf, TB and do the plugs and wires as your truck is 5 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
