Last Thursday at 4 pm in the afternoon. 1 hour before the long weekend. the truck decided that it was Obviously going to take the weekend off. and refused to start.
It would crank over but wouldn't fire. This was 10 minutes after I had shut it off running perfectly normally prior to that point.
So without tools I checked wires and plugs, all appeared normal. Yet the engine cranked over and refused to fire. Idiot lights appeared to function normally.
So I called the tow truck and had it hauled off to my mechanic. who didn't look at it. Due to the fact it was late in the day, and Hes very catholic and this Wasn't a weekend he was going to be working on anything. Being Easter and all.
Today 5 days later he calls and asks me why the truck is there, It appears over the long week end the truck fixed itself, and starts and runs just fine tyvm. I drove it around the block a few times to get it warmed up and started and stopped it at least a dozen times trying to get the truck to break again. its refusing.
so. with that long verbose story. anyone have a clue? I really don't need a mystery problem that's going to bite me in the ass at a later date.
