Still having some startup issues... now that the snow is gone and getting warmer here in Canada I can actually start troubleshooting.
Saw a YouTube vid, someone had the same issue (truck starts, runs 2 seconds, dies. No sputtering, coughing, smoke. Runs fine for 2 seconds then dies) and in his case it was a bad battery connection.
Popped the hood and had a look and connection looks ok, though no idea how good the wiring is inside the plastic sleeve. However, there is a wire, about 10" long, a bit coiled with a spade connector on the end, just there... can't see where it should go, no idea what it's for... maybe the issue?
Anyone know where the mystery wire goes?
