Problem,
Engine issue
My truck has been acting up sporadically for the last month. First, while I was driving it felt like it dropped into neutral but the rpm's revved. It almost stalled and battery light came on. I pulled over, turned off the engine, restarted it and drove for 4 days with no problem.
Next incident, felt like I had no power engined raced for about 3 seconds and it continued on as usual.
Had the truck serviced! They replaced the bad fan clutch and replaced both serpentine belts, charged A/C. Removed and replaced front leaking pinion seal, performed BG fuel injector cleaning and cleaned throttle body all other tune up parts ok. Serviced transmission , removed trans pan and replaced trans filter, also replaced spin on trans filter and filled with new fluid. Cleaned throttle body and cleaned fuel injectors, checked engine data and checked fuel pressure, both ok.
Drove the truck for 6 days, no problems until tonight. While drive it lost all power and shut off. Since I could not really steer I barely missed a mailbox. Turned off ignition, restarted dash gear symbols flickered and I drove it home with no incidence. Any idea's?
