Wyoming B.S. Thread

I feel your pain man. It all blurrs together and the road gets exhausting. Good luck with a move in the middle of it man.

 

i feel like you don't even live in lander hardly these days haha

you guys get snow?

We got heavy..snow/sleet/rain or whatever. Mountains got a bunch of snow, just wet here.

Gonna make the melt off the mountain all the longer. Was looking good before.

 

Jackson is a soulless, poser paradise

I bet all your ski gear matches

 

its why he fits in!

 

Finished the last paper I'll have to write for undergrad . Possibly the worst paper I have written in the past 2 years but still feels good.

 

0 fucks given haha

feels good i know.

 

Lizzy went ahead and reminded me that she just broke 100 pages for a write up shes been working on the past few months. #whothoughtbiologisthadtoactuallywork

 

yea but..

#gradstudentlife

or #gradstudentprobs haha

Gonna suck when she is a doctorate candidate! Dissertation for that can be books!

 

Lol, her masters wasn't that bad. I think it was 50 some pages. Certainly good prep if she does go back for her phd.

 

Couldn't have said it better myself!

 

Alright. Cruiser ran great after the fuel sock replacement. Today, I drive it around in the rain to pick a friend up for a project. Get going again and it starts losing power under acceleration again. Far worse this time.

Any ideas? Maybe something electrical that is getting wet? I thought it was the fuel pump but I don't think it would be as inconsistent?

 

more details..

Its EFI still right?

Didn't matter what gear you were in? smell fuel?

 

Yep, EFI.

Transmission has shifted strong since I have owned it. No smell of fuel in the cab. When I pulled the fuel pump the tank looked great but the filter needed the change.

Basically it drives fine and out of no where, while accelerating, its like it just stops. No power, engine doesnt rev, and it chokes. I let off the gas pedal and it starts back at it but soon as I start to accelerate it will do it again. If I were to pull over it would idle just fine. I have never ran out of gas, but if I did, I would assume it would feel like this. It's not something I can readily repeat either. I have drove all over town trying to recreate it. Just seems to happen but its been happening far more often and worse when it does.

Maybe the MAF and throttle body? Doubt they have been cleaned in years.

 

couldn't hurt to clean those.

If the pump filter needed changed, did you also change the fuel filter on the lines? Could be full of all shorts of shit.

 

had a fuel pump go out in two cars and that was like how you described in both. took them a month to fail from when the symptoms started. I would take your 3k offers today lol!

 

Yea can't hurt, may as well replace the fuel pump

 

@Blackdawg I only changed the filter on the pump.

Lol, that offer is down in colorado and I don't want to attempt to drive it down there otherwise I probably would have sold it yesterday. If its the fuel pump I am not too worried. At least that's a simple swap.

 

well i not a LC guy..not familiar with the motor system. But im am guessing there is another filter just like on the tacoma that is inline of the fuel line somewhere before it gets to the fuel rail. Id change that too. May as well do the pump too.

what is the year and motor?

 

91 and the 3fe motor. I'll see if I can pick up a fuel pump somewhere in town and swap it out. That's what I originally thought it was but I would assume it would be a consistent issue.

 

can't hurt. Fuel filter is on the passenger side frame rail right above the axle i think.
