Everyone has helped before, need some help again. Mainly just use my 96 PSD for towing, took off the other morning to my brothers house made it about 2 miles then the engine light came on and the truck acted like it went into some power down mode (didnt stall) stayed idling but would barely move when i gave her some gas. Stopped the truck immediately, went to turn off the key and it revved really high, chugged and finally died. Turned the ignition off , let it sit for about 30 seconds started it back up no problems and the engine light went off. Went another 1/4 mile or so and same thing happens.
What i have done so far to try and fix it.
changed cps.. no change (tach has always moved even when it was acting up)
checked all fuses including # 22 (changed it out anyway)
checked fuel in bowl
pulled out chip to see if it was causing the problems.. no luck
almost seems like the PCM keeps cycling?
I can go out and start it up no problem,runs great, no engine light etc,
then all of a sudden it almost dies and light comes on, dont have access to a scanner atm, thought i'd check with you all here first since you helped me before
any help would be greatly appreciated.
