Truck died somewhat randomly, won't start.
So I'm looking for some help and suggestions here. Yesterday I was out wheeling with some friends. My truck ran fine all day, and with the exception of some slight heating issues (caused by a radiator caked in mud) it ran fine. I cleaned the radiator as best I could on the trail by gently flushing river water over and through the rad. It never really got too hot, and was shut down well before the point of boiling over.
While airing up, my truck was sitting at normal temps at idle, and suddenly died for what seems like no reason. The truck has fuel, spark, and while the air filter is less than clean it's not clogged. Oil is good. We pulled the maf, battery, and checked fuses before towing it out. It turns over fine, but not even a sputter. Timing belt while due for a change is still in one piece. Truck should be unloaded today, but no idea where to start or any clue why it died so randomly. It ran completely normal with zero issues or indications something was on the way out.
Truck is a 97 SR5 with manual transmission, any ideas where to start?
