Long time no post

Hey everyone. Havent posted in quite awhile. Just sayin HI!!
I'm curious to know if someone would have a few mins one day and live close to Polo Park that knows the 2.9 L real well. My B2 is running pretty lousy and I need some ideas as to what may be causing the issue. Its idling off and missing a bit from what I can tell, but its real hard to explain. You really need to hear what its doin. Lemme know.

Thanks.

I'm not sure, I'm thinkin it's a sensor, but I'm not sure, so it could be the MAF, ive done numerous tune ups and it still does it.

Well, I have more issues than the MAF right now. I took the truck thru the carwash and it must have shorted somethin out. The fuel pump wont turn on now.
Go figure, it has to happen now, when its too cold to get on the ground in the yard, and that I work waaaaay the hell out route 90. I tried replacin the fuel pump relay but that wasnt it, coz it happened 2 weeks ago and thats what it was. So now I'm screwed, I hope the autopac settlement is decent for my wife, then we can get a new truck
