About to turn 93K on an 02 4x4.
In the last 2 weeks, I've changed the plugs and wires, new brakes ( shoes and rotors ),
flushed the cooling system, replaced the tranny filter, did the EPC adjustment, replaced the fuel filter, cleaned the engine, and cleaned the K&N air filter, and an oil change ( mobil-1 w/ k&n oil filter, which is what I've used since it had 250 miles on it )
In the last year I've also replaced the IAC and DPFE.
She's been running better than when it was brand new for about a week ( Aprox 350 miles )
All of a sudden today, I drove it about 30 miles to work.
Came into work for about an hour, then had to go to another office, and it wouldn't start. Tried at least 6 times. Didn't even act like it wanted to.
Got a little angry, and just held the key to start for about 6 seconds, and it started! ran for about
5 seconds and quit.
Tried again, and it started right up, and got me where I wanted to go. Performed perfectly.
I've been going out there about every hour starting it, to make sure it's OK, and so far no further issues.
Anyone else have something like this? Some strange fluke? I'm supposed to go out of town this weekend, and all of a sudden worried.
I'll see if anything happens today or tomorrow. I just drove back to my office, and again, it was fine.
