RE: Highway Breakdown
...the plot thickens....
i took it too the shop, and the mechanic got out his OBD tool. apparently my o2 sensor is fine. I have a hole in my exauhst manifold and at highway speeds i was suching fresh air into it and all that extra air was messing with the sensor. So basically i got an 02 code because it was reading the atmospheric air as well as my emissions. He also said that the chances of a bad 02 sensor making me stall out are basically slim to none.
I agree entirely. But I have no leads on any other issues. he couldnt find anything wrongeither. So basically I seem to have a perfectly working truck which is going to stall everytime i get on the highway...BS.
my best guess is a loose connection somewhere which is corroded or jiggling. we'll see if it happens in the city, but shes been running fine the past 4 days.
