Champions really don't like to work after they have been fuel fouled...... (in my experience.)

Check the coolant temp sensor just to the drivers side of the thermostat housing. If you have A/C, it's a pain to see/get to...... should be a two wire connector. Make sure everything looks good there.

I hate to say it, but you're putting crap (Duralast) parts on that truck so the fact that the part is new does not rule out the possibility of it being failed. Especially when it comes to the oxygen sensors.

You can add Bosh 02's to the list also, They don't last long. For 02's get NTK for sensors you cant go wrong with Delphi. Plugs stick with autolites. i have seen many posts on part brands and these seem to be the best. At least in my opinion, It's what i use in my trucks.
