i hope thats not my problem!

update:
it looks like the bolt is not comin out. i can drill it out but i did find a alternative(not the best). a new TB is $100 i can buy a new IAC which is $55 and install them new. the old map and TPS sensor came off so ill reuse those. i just hope its the IAC sensor.

4 codes pulled

p0505 IAC malfunction
p0123 TPS volts high
p0108 MAP volts high
p0133 o2 bank 1 sensor 1 low volts

it cant be all 4 sensors can it??

i started the truck when i got here and it started fine. but idled at 1k. then i ran the code reader erased the codes. 10min. later i started it but it wouldnt start it died. so i took the iac sensor off and started it and it would go to 500 then drop to 200 then die.

any ideas?
Well yes it can be all 4 , thats what the scanner is reading. at the map sensor there a little rubbe hose make sure thats not crack or leaking..

I've always worked from the first code down. It is always possible that the problem causing hte first code is what is causing the other codes to show up. I would recommend starting with the IAC and working your way down the list.

hose looks good but i have to make a edit the map sensor didnt come off. one of the bolts is stripped also. so now if i buy a new TB $100, map sensor $55,TPS $40, IAC $50. and hopefully it runs. not including the o2 sensor and bad cat.

I missed the bad cat part.. if the cat is pluged bad enough it wont run right or at all... but since you already strip the screws mite as well replace...

if it turns out to be the cat im gonna be pissed off...

im not worried about the cat mainly because i was gonna gutt it anyway and since it has a after market exhaust it has a clamp that i can take off and have access to the cat.

damn i should have fixed all this before it died on me
