Hey guys,
This problem has been hard for me to troubleshoot because it has only happened to me twice in the last year. I am not sure if I am loosing spark or fuel because when I test things the truck is running fine. Basically this has happened to me twice, it has been on the two hottest days that I have driven the truck for more than a half an hour. I will drive the truck for at least thirty minutes, everything is running fine. I will go into a store come back out to the truck half an hour later...start the truck, it will sputter and die. Pushing the gas pedal makes it run worse. I can normally re start the truck but its just dies quickly again. Once the truck cools off it runs fine again. Does anyone have experience with this? I have replaced my MAF, spark plugs and wires, and the ignition coil looks newer too. None of these things changed this problem. I looked around on google and it seems that some times the fuel pump relay can cause a problem like this, or the ignition module. Any advice?
