    Damn. That'll do it.

    When you first noticed then engine problem, what kind of driving were you doing? Also, do you remember what weight oil you were using?

    i put a catch can on the truck last jan. week later went wheeling. on teh way back, i got a p0016 and it felt like the truck hit a brick wall but then picked back up and ran. the catch can had a huge vaccum leak and was causing it to run rough and not even run after i starting to figure out the problem. removed the catch can and everything was fine then i would have issues later. basically it wouldnt go until the truck got to operating temp and would run ok. altho it sounded rough. evidently i was having low oil pressure too but didnt know until i put a gauge on it back in june/july


    running 5w-30 right now, probably going to bump up to 5w-40 next oil change.

    also, Torpsd here is the original post about it over on xru http://www.xr-underground.com/forum/showthread.php?t=52310

    Ryan, when you get a chance to take it off-road, get us some pics. We'll show it off for you on our instagram album.
