Ok so a few times now, 3 to be exact, my truck has started with difficulties. Here's the scenario) I put the key in and turned it so the truck dings 3 times and I started it but really didn't hold the key long enough, like half a crank cycle, and my truck will start but die right away. Then its a b*tch to start afterwards. Either I have to wait 5 minutes or more and try again or start it and hold the throttle until the engine seems to "catch" and run fine.
Now last night I did everything normal and started my truck, but it then died right away as if I cranked it over for half a cycle. I had to hold the throttle at about 1,600-1,800 rpms for a minute for the dang engine to keep running. Now I don't know if a sensor is going bad or my fuel filter is plugged up or something but has anyone else had this problem before?
