MILLERMANBG, go put the stinkin new CPS in there and lets get you back on the road


Oh and when we get this fixed, lets send racer*2 a case of blinker fluid, or some cross drilled brake lines since he has a good attitude.

What? no muffler bearings? You know they allow for a smoother exhaust flow and increased power. Gawd....You are holding back! hehe

Let us know if changing the CPS works!
I respectfully disagree, if the CPS goes the truck MIGHT be DOA. My first would only die when decellerating. My second would die randomly, but would ALWAYS restart (That is till I chaged either of them. I didn't give them a chance to leave me stranded) With that being said, my uncles was dead in the water

My truck will randomly die when you hit the brake. This seems to only be when you are taking it out of park though. That and it has only did it about three times (before the CPS recall...now I have a new one and only once...hmm)

I'll check back.
Huh? This is as far as I've gotten so far in this thread, so there is no telling what else I may find here.
