Starts but shuts off numerous times
Truck is on it's last legs but still some life left.
Right now, having a start/shutoff issue. Crank it, starts, runs for 1-2sec then coughs and shuts off. Some days it starts fine, some days you have to try 3-5x. Rare but happened a few times, it starts to cough and almost shuts off when idle, like in line at take-out for coffee.
Other issue is that when at a stop, sometimes it gives itself a little rev and wants to lunge forward a bit, but luckily foot on the break.
Seems sluggish lately as well, though throttle body should be fine, replaced it 2yrs ago. With the issues this truck has had though, in 2yrs I drove maybe 2,000km at most. It's (at this time) mostly groceries and lumber.
Side note, in case it's related, the engine is definitely burning oil at this time, and manifold on passenger side is shot and loud. 399,870km... almost 400,000km.
