Truck sputtering and bogging bad

97 v6 4x4 5 speed is bogging and sputtering very bad out of no where...randomly starte while driving. Any idea? You can even hear it sputtering slightly while idling

 

spark plus or try cleaning the throttle body?

 

Was wondering about spark plugs but I put new ones in about 5k ago...also cleaned the throttle body like 5k ago...this happened out of no where while I was driving it just started sputtering in 3rd shifted down into second and same thing

 

bad gas / fuel filter clogged

 

Fuel filter was done recently

Here's a vid

Gonna try cleaning the maf tmr and maybe change the plug wires

 

Cleaned the iac, tb, maf and checked the plugs...the plugs look good. Changing plug wires Tuesday when they come in

 

You might have a bad injector. I had the same thing happen to me and I tried everything and it ended up being a bad injector.

 

Did it throw a code?

 

And did it sound like mine? I feel like it would be so much worse if it was a misfire or injector

 

Ya mine did through a code after a while

 

Hopefully my problem is gonna after I put it all back together but I doubt it lol

 

Mine threw 0011 and 0016.
It was sputtering and itching to stall.
Misfires on all odd cylinders.
My friend is looking at mine right now, starting with the ocv and plugs.

And yes my truck sounded very throaty as in the above video.

2010 130k miles

 

Hmm I drive it all around no codes nothing and not really much power loss and doesn't stall at all...idle is only affected slightly.. Doesn't seam like a miss ...my truck was pretty loud/throaty before but now t has like a thumping exhaust type sound

 

check for cracked lose vacuum lnes, check the MAF sensor plug is tight, if so check plugs and wires and if they are good then check compression.

also were you off road where you might have snagged the o2 sensor wires?

 

One hose for the instake was broke. In half but off Or fixed it changed nothing...was driving on the road when it happened and the O2 sensors wires are good

 

if one hose was broke then the rest are rotten too, maybe one you don't see yet is broken too. start there and confirm EVERY vacuum or air hose under the hood is new and check the main intake duct isn't cracked

 

I've checked every hose a few k ago because I had a high idle...I knew this one was almost done but it was cracked through this time. I take is good...tmr getting the plug wires and putting everything back together

 

my '99 V6 did something like this last summer. New air filter fixed it for me and I have had no issues since then. Good luck!

 

What exhaust is that? Sorry to thread jack. Have you tried dumping some Chevron Techron in your tank?
