    So it sounds like after the TPS sensor things are running better than ever now! Glad to hear it. I knew once I wiggled that connector on it and the engine changed it's tune that your engine performance issue was right there.

    Gator, if you get those spacers and replace the ones on your truck, can I have the old oles you take off?

    slow, no power, wants to stall after it runs and warms up for a minute. I ran 5 minutes up the road and 5 minutes in the woods and it wanted to die.

    You sure it's the engine and not the transmission, or somewhere in the driveline?

    I also think you got a lemon. That sucks man. I hope that I get a chance to come mess with it with ya. Maybe we can figure out what's wrong with it.

    throttle body. I am sure it's not in the trans or driveline. tried starting it up today and all it would do it turn over... I am just gonna sell it. I don't have time nor money to sink into it anymore.... I didn't think about the MAF. i'll try something with that later tonight... before i put it on craigslist.:deadhorse::pout:

    That's rough man, I sure hate to see that. It could be just some stupid little sensor. But it's near impossible to know exactly what it is without replacing tons of shit.

    I hate vehicle electronics.

    i think you need to get your hands on a carbuerator and convert it over to a carb cuz it sure enough sounds like the TB is cutting out on you when you put it under a load after it has warmed up. you could swap TB's but then its a crap shoot but if you just mount a carb on it and do away with the electronics you have a simply press the gas and go motor.
