My engine has been running rough for a long time. Today I thought I would try some mass air sensor cleaner. While I had it apart I thought I would check the air filter. I changed it about a year a ago but I took it out for good measure to inspect it. Ok here comes the crazy part!. It had a rat nest underneath it clogging it severly!!! I was amazed the truck was running as good as it was! The rat had used red and green fuzzy stuff. It looked like a christmas party was going on in there! CRAZY MAN!!!
 
it is amazing how those little critters get in there.



So I take it that it fixed the problem ???

Good that you found out it was in there. Nasty little buggers. May want to keep an eye on it (keep them from starting another one)and set some traps near the ST. (they love peanut butter):D;)
