Question: Spitting and sputtering
Question
Whenever I barely push the gas and push it to the floor, the truck runs fine. Anywhere between those spots the truck spits and sputters alot. I changed the oil, air filter, new spark plug wires, and turned the distrubuter and still no luck. Help me please.

RookieI have the same problem and I've replaced just about everything i can think of. I'm thinking it's either the differential or exhaust

Visitor, March 31, 2011, 12:43Replyi also had this issue, it started out with a little bit and then would sputter all the time unless the RPMs were pretty high, then i took out my exhaust manifold O2 sensor and it was broken completely, had some issues with the heat shield coming out, the AC lines where in the way, i dint have all my tools, i was on the road on vacation, so i only had my little tool box...and there is a big nut that the sensor screws into and that came out with it, took it to schucks and they got it free, but also stripped the threads, but i found a tap and rethreaded it, and i bought the new sensor and now it works great

Visitor, May 14, 2011, 11:32ReplyIt is more than likely your massair flow sensor. I went through wires, plugs, gas treatments and it still ran bad. When I got my new sensor it ran like a new truck.
