I got it running for good now! My mechanic came out and we noticed it was getting weak spark at the coil. He said this could be the cause of the fuel not igniting, which also makes it look like a flooded condition. Well it was the coil! I bought a new one, installed it, and she fired right up. Took it for a test drive and I noticed the throttle was a little jumpy. The idle was a little high as well. I came back home and popped the hood and the spark plug wire for cylinder #1 was disconnected! I felt like a complete idiot! I plugged it back in and she purred like a kitten.

The best of all, my mechanic didn't charge me anything for the house calls.

Thanks for your feedback guys.

P.S. I will post a vid of the truck on Streetfire soon.

Yeah I need to get out there, I haven't driven her in 3 months :sad:

I am thinking of going to Circuit City and buying some new speakers...Any suggestions guys? I don't know if I should buy some new 4" dash speakers or put some in the door or something. I really have no clue for the back speakers though.
