    Been experiencing an ignition problem lately that occurs intermittently, usually after driving down a dirt road, where I’ll turn the engine over and fire it up but it will shutter down and turn off as if the truck is out of gas. The problem will persist as I continue to turn the key to start it and it usually takes a couple of tries at removing the key and reinserting it until I’ve found the Goldilocks zone. Anyone else experience this or anyone have a clue as to what could be causing it? ‍♂️
