So as it turns out...
there was this recall supposedly on my year trucks, back in the 90's for a vaccum problem. that problem was that, the wires that ran from the vaccum box to the back of the engine went near the crossover, and so, it got HOT! now we pulled those wires and there was a hole in the main vaccum hose about an inch long. so we reran it and my truck is fixed! thanks to everyone who has offered help on this very very long project!
NOW! what do you guys think i should do to it next?!

no sport, as in visual and stuff like that exhast and audio, not anything with the motor unless making it more powerful, no its running best it has in 10 years

This thread would make so much more sense if it were posted to the original "problem" thread. Or at least linked to it.
I'm glad you found the solution to your problem. But really, if you want the knowledge you gained to bennefit others, you need to give us a little more information. Thanks!
