Alright I have searched this forum, among others to start pinpointing things and at this point I am at a loss. So heres what I got and I would like any input you have. It's a 1996 4.0
Truck through codes that it was misfiring on all 6 cyclinders, I have done the standard tuneup procedures and it still has the problem, the problem is this...
In the mornings the truck will hesitate in starting and then unless you keep the gas pedal down it will die, if you drive the truck with constant throttle to maintain it running after about 25 minutes it will maintain idle, however at this point it will idle very rough and lower than expected. I would like to tell you the RPM's but it is a base model with no tach. At the exhaust pipe it has a very distinct sputter that confirms the misfiring that could be evident. I replaced the IAC with no apparent change in running condition, when I disconnect the TPS the truck will almost cut off and then run as if the TPS was still connected without much change, the same happens when you disconnect the MAP. Lastly I have had the truck running and disconnected the CPS and it cuts off immediately.
Any thoughts on what to do next would be greatly appreciated. I had a 99, and another 96 that had a similiar situation at startup, as it would start and then die immediately, however they corrected themselves so I never had a logical solution to the problem.
