- typically the difference between an $8 and a $20 haircut is way more than $12
So I bought this truck almost 4 years ago for $500 with 115000 miles on it and it now sits at 175,000.
I love this truck and have put some serious $$ trying to keep it running but I am now at a point where I need some help.
the problem leading up to the current crank/no-start situation are as follows. a while back I had some issues with the fuel pump relay so i pulled another power distribution box from byot and it seemed to do the trick but then intermittently when downshifting or just coming to a stop, I think only when doing so from 2nd gear,
whenever I would press the clutch pedal it cut the power to everything but I would be able to restart it no problem. google told me it was the throwout bearing. I bought a new one but have yet to have the
guts to take on this job as I'm unsure of my ability to complete it. the other day while in traffic the power cut out and I was unable to get it started as was typical. pushed off to the side of the road I fiddled with the relay until 2 hours later it started and I was able to get home. I drove it for another day until it stalled again and won't start. The fuel pump isn't priming and I found this under the truck. any idea what these are? how they could have gotten like this?
