Throttle went away, rough idle, then died
Throttle went away, rough idle, then died
Ok, 1999 stock, new lift pump (4 months old), tested pump, working fine.
Last night, truck started fine, drove about 5 miles, driving slowly, and the throttle suddenly went away. It went to a very rough idle. Truck never accelerated again, and died about 20 seconds later. Will NOT start now.
Cam sensor maybe???
thanks guys,

Ok- by the way, fuel filter is fine. The throttle didn't fade away, it was working perfect, then BAM, rough idle. REALLY rough idle. It rans for about 2-30 seconds, until I tried to take off, then died. It wants to run, but it's VERY VERY rough. Could this be a TPS or CPS? I do have an injector pump that's going out for about a year, but I don't think that's what it is.
Any ideas? Thanks again!

I wouldn't rule out your VP44. Mine was dying for about a year too and then all the sudden over about a week's time it started to completely die and only start when it wanted. It would be fine for a certain amount of time then all the sudden it would stumble and die. It would give me dead pedal on the highway to the point where it was a complete road hazard. Luckily for me, I still had about 1000 miles on the 100,000 warranty. By all means check everything else first, but don't rule the IP out.
