Attention: TDR Forum Junkies Well go to move the truck into the driveway after the wife got home tonight. and when i put the trans into drive it stalls the engine about 60% of the time when it doesnt it lugs it down for a second then its fine.
i took the superchips off of it and it reduced it to were it would mainly lug it down but only stall it about 20% of the time. so i took it for a test drive without the programmer on it and it seemed to be sluggish from about 2100rpm on. so i make a wild ase guess and changed the fuel filter, it was pretty dirty and there was quite abit of gunk in the bottom of the canister as well as maybe 4-6 small pieces of metal(glitter) so i cleaned it and put new filter on and primed it. did a test drive and was still feeling like it was defueling/sluggish about the same rpm range. so i decided to throw the superchips programmer back at it, and it is still stalling about 50% of the time but no longer sluggish.
I have no clue were else to look. except i need a fuel pressure guage. i have the low pressure idiot light but that dosnt flash at all except startup.
No codes either.
