Frozen ???IP???TPS????
Ok, here is the deal.. I posted the other day about the throttle cable freezing going down the road. Now, I'm not so sure. Been checking it after sitting all night and the cable seems free when disconnected from the pump. Had the TPS off and it too moved free. My question is, is there anyway that water could get into the pump innards and not cuase any other problems?

No fuel leaks present, runs great, just something not right.

This is on the 98 12V in my sig.

Going to be 5 degrees tonight, so that will for sure freeze up something. I'll look in the morning, but thought I'd run this by everbody.

Thanks for your inputs.

Ed

Don't have guages installed, but am set to borrow a guage Monday or so. Don't think that is the problem tho, as it runs out and pulls as good as ever. Just a little when the truck wants to keep runnin out even when I'm hollerin "Whoa you ..."

My 97 did this when I first got the truck. Were the throttle cable and cruse cable are hooked to there is plate with a pivot point and linkage goes to the back of the pump. I was at this pivot point that it was freezing took it apart cleaned it up and coated shaft with antiseize this was 15 mounths ago it has been good since.
