Thanks for the quick response. Im gonna check all the plugs today but I no thats not it. It was running great for months then all of a sudden this. Im thinking fuel filter or something with the dist. cap. But I will check the plugs and replace the fuel filter with another new wix today. Shit is annoying

Well its at the shop. Im leaning in the direction of dist. cap failure but after I did the timing chain I figured Id try and figure out what it is b4 I guess at it. Hope its a simple fix.

Guys Found out whats wrong with the Beast. Here it goes.....

1. Popping is because of a bad mass air flow sensor and bad distributor. Fixing both.

2. Intake gaskets leaking. Doing both top and bottome new with felpro gaskets.

3. Thermostat is bad. So is sensor next to it (forgot name). Fixing both as well. Oh its called the Coolant Temp. Sensor.

4. Crankshaft Postiion Sensor was bad. Replacing that as well.

5. Doing a oil change as well. Royal Purple with K&N Filter. The norm for this truck.

6. Just added a new Optima RedTop Battery as well, why not right.


Parts----$300 +300 mass air flow sensor new...Battery $ not included did that last week.

Labor----$225......

total bill $525...Ended up doin a used air flow sensor for free until next week when the Grannelli arrives.
