any body had this problem??? truck sputtered and died last week but started right back up hadnt had trouble till tonight went to get fuel it sputtered then started came home removed chip(ts 3 stage) remote started ran for 20 or sao min. then headed into town got about a mile then it died and wont start at all???????????????????any help would be greatly appreciated
Could be fuel related. Engine getting enough to idle but not be driven. Cold weather (gelled)? Fuel filter(s) fouled? Restriction in water seperator (even though drained)?
That's What I figured, Mine just stoped dead while driving, then started right back up.
Drove it straight to the dealer and told them I thought it might be the CPS.
New guy behind the Counter said they would check it out and then let me know and if it was covered.
He looked at me like I had two heads when I sugested that the CPS is a known problem. Man I hate breaking in new service reps [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I said, change what ever parts you want however I would not pick it back up until the CPS was changed.
Picked it up a few hours later, He said Just the CPS

Take it in to the dealer. If you are still under the 5yr/100,000mile warranty it will only cost you $100. Just a suggestion. I had a miss and rough intermitant idle in my X that the dealer could not duplicate. I switched out the CPS with the spare that I carry and the miss went away.

So far so good. Problem seems to be solved. There was a chaffed wire next to the intake bracket. I beleive it was gray w/ red tracer. Applied some liqiud tape and voila [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] It hass't happened again. (my fingers are turning blue from keeping them crossed [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
