ive owned this truck since it had like 5 miles on the odometer and its been awesome but im at my witts end , please , any help would be greatly appreciated

 

Well if your car's timing is off (due to sensor failures) you would need to check the timing, and most likely bring the car back to OEM Specs.

All of your symptoms point to incorrect timing.

In some cars/trucks even one degree off can make a significant difference.

If I was you, I would just go ahead and do the timing belt, oil pump & water pump, along with a coolant flush/change.

But your first step should be to get a timing light and check your timing at idle against what it is suppose to be.

Let us know how that works out.

 

Shane, what you posted sounds like issues I have heard of before on other type vehicles. I have heard of defective ecm's causing this sort of issue. Maybe plain out defective or bad solder joints on the board.

 

CHANGE THE TIMING CHAIN!!!!! LOOK AT MY PICTURES. Happened at 199983 miles. I had that problem happen only a few times. Not but a few days later, timing chain jumped sprocket and bent the whole valve train. Every last push rod, every last valve bent to hell and back.

No smoking, no noise. Just occasionally felt like someone hit the brakes real hard, then it would take off. Out of nowhere, boom! no more engine. Never leaked oil before or after. Never smoked. Never ticked even on cold startups on cold mornings.

 

Yeah but Sabin420, why didnt you change the timing chain almost 100k sooner?

 

Cause I didn't But coming from first hand experience, If you are almost at 200K miles and just starting to have an issue with the motor, change the timing chain and save yourself $3000 for a used motor or $1800 to rebuild the old...Minimum! The chain costs $80 or something like that. Easy to do for a halfway skilled mechanic and DIYers. Don't be retarded like me. Get it changed.

 

Words of wisdom right there guys!!

 

Unless you need a reason to tell the old lady why you need to buy that performance cam, chrome molly push rods, HP rocker arm set, racing valves and valve springs, and port the cylinder heads....let it brake. LOL
