I can't find it. Chilton nor haynes book explain it good enough. Some other info. If you keep your foot on the gas it will stay running, but if you let off, switch to reverse or drive it just dies.

 

Temp sensor is right behind the alternator. Two wire connector. Screws into the intake, in the coolant crossover passage. I think it's just to the outside of the heater hose there.

 

Did you use new o-rings for injectors? Or check them for leaks?

 

Sensor looks new and no I did not use new o rings. Something I was wondering, if I put the intake gaskets on wrong would it cause all this trouble?

I am saying to hell with it and taking it to a mechanic as soon as my income tax comes in. Hopefully that will be soon. Thanks again everyone!

 

Alright yall, here is the update.

From what the mechanic told me fuel is being pushed into an o ring chamber (?) and making it not able to stay running. He said to fix it he would have to remove the heads and blah blah. Anyway he wanted $1,000 to fix the problem and I told him no. I am having it towed back to my home and throwing a for sale sign on it. $250 a month in gas alone for that truck was one of the big factors in not fixing it. Wife and I are just going to use our income tax and get a small suv that's good on gas.


Thanks very much to everyone who took their time to answer and help us with this!

 

If you had the injectors pulled during the plenum repair and didn't use new o-rings upon reinstall, maybe it's as simple fix?

 

If you read what HeyYou is telling you, make sure your temp sensor is functioning correctly. If the brain thinks the temp is to low it compensates. Temp should be happy around 190 deg F.

 

I never pulled the injectors. Was I supposed to?

I will check that temp sensor again once I get it back home.

I really don't want to give up my truck, just very frustrating is all. Thanks again ya'll.

 

Somethings to check

Make sure you have spark at each cyld
Make sure all the injectors are firing
make sure each injector has the right harness plug on it, might have got a couple mixed up.
Comp test on the motor

With the motor off, unplug each injector and look inside the plug make sure the tangs are not bent over in them.
