It is a pretty cold day today. 16f.
I just ran errands for about an hour and when backing in the driveway I lost power, the engine ran rough, then died. I shut it off and restarted it. It started perfect then died after a second 3 times in a row.
I came inside did some searching on here. Someone mentioned could be a vacuum leak. I just changed the pass side valve cover gasket and realized I forgot to hook up the tiny vacuum hose on the air box. I went hooked it up. Started the truck and it ran for 10 seconds then died again. then 3 more times it started and died after a second. I will let it cool down and see if i have any better luck.
My gas mileage has been going down for about a week now so I assume its running rich but there is no check engine light and it runs good, not rough.
any ideas or help would be greatly greatly appreciated!
I dont do long drives, no more than 20 minutes mostly so the drive today has been my longest in a while.
