Hello all,
Recently, my truck has been occasionally failing to start after being shut off, or stalled (through my own fault, not the truck's). She has never died while driving and runs well.
When she does fail to start, she'll turn over with no trouble, but not even catch. It only happens after I've been driving around, and then only happens 10% of the time or so. I've got air, though I'm tossing a p0171 code, though I recently changed the air filter. Plugs and wires are new, coils are not. Schrader valve is pressurized, though I haven't had the opportunity to actually use a gauge.
Any thoughts? My father suggested the camshaft or crankshaft position sensor, but it runs well, when it runs.
Any suggestions are appreciated, If I can provide additional info, let me know. Truck is a 1997 2.3 XL.
