So, we've had this truck for about a year now, when I first got it it would quit running whenever it decided to, then no run at all. I replaced the ECM and it has been running great for about 6 months. Now we're kind of right back there. It will usually start when cold, run a few minutes or maybe a few miles then quit running again and won't restart. Spray starting fluid in it and it may or may not start. It has a full tank of gas, plenty of fuel pressure, and a 2nd ECM replaced last week thinking it might be the culprit again.
No change in performance, so where do I look next. When it does start it runs great, it just wants to shut down unexpectedly, almost like something is getting hot or something.
What do you guys think I should look into.
It's a 86 2.9 5 spd. Are there some electrical gremlins I need to look into.
Thanks again,
