running issues--
stutters at constant speed. runs good above and below the part where you hold throttle at a constant speed( like 55mph for example)
what I have done--
Cruiser54's ground and terminal cleanup ideas.i gained a lot of functionality back but not quite there yet.
new plugs, cap and rotor. and wires. new battery and alternator.
swapped radiator and got new(er) style overflow tank setup.
changed CPS on bellhousing
swapped out both sensors on throttle body , no change for the better or worse. it runs the same plugged in for both and unplugged for both.
cam sensor in distributor--swapped a used one in and no change from either sensor.
current problems--
ignition switch I ll fix this weekend
brake light switch/fuse keep popping and brake lights work and don't work etc.
will clean up trailer wiring as a preventative measure.
driveability is there, LOTS of power but it is idling high(this used to be very intermittent, now all the time)
and from time to time the stuttering while holding steady speed.
each time I change or repair something I gain ground but still cant hold steady speed and it kills my fuel economy.
thanks to everyone who posts
about getting my truck running smoother.
