This morning I noticed for the first 5-10 min while driving, when going an an upgrade or a bit of a hill the truck had a hard time getting the oomph to boost itself along smoother. After a spell that subsided. This is rather new.
It does not feel like this is a transmission related issue.(I have had a history of a PO 783 3/4 shift mal fault for ages.I have had the shop change the Tx fluid out and put in a new filter).
While driving in to work this morning and once I got into the heavier traffic and we were creeping along close to a standstill. The truck gave afew burps and wanted to stall out. I managed to keep one foot on accelerator and one on brake to keep it running. Once we started moving it was okay. In the idle circumstance, the truck is not liking it.
Wires were replaced 2-3 yrs ago, plugs replaced 1 yr ago. I did a visual and ensured fittings were all snug. Should I have a closer look?
Fuel & Air filters have been replaced, fuel injection was cleaned over a year ago, as was the timing belt.
Truck is not running nearly as smooth as it should be and feels slugish sometimes.
