So after 4 years with no major problems in this truck, i was on my way home and out of nowhere i lost all power. It was like i turned the key completely off. Luckily i was near a parking lot and managed to pull in with no power steering.
Here is the kick, the truck has been running perfect. I didnt even feel a hesitation at all before it quit. Also, it is not throwing any codes at all. Since it was colder than a witches tit, i only managed to check a few things. It has fuel pressure, and it turns over fine, and i unplugged the MAP sensor to see if i can get it into limp mode (no luck), and checked all the fuses. Everything looks fine it just will not start.
I did put gas in it about 10 minutes prior which leads me to believe i could have gotten bad gas. But not sure if that would cause it to completely die without any signs.
Any insight on this would be great. Tomorrow after work Im going to clean the IAC and see if i can see or find anything else out of the ordinary.
