88 Beast Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 88,4.0. Truck always started good. Was t/sing my wipers awhile back and had it idling for a few minutes. Shut it down and tried to restart, cranked but wouldn't start. Held gas pedal to floor, still wouldn't fire. Pissed off so had lunch and a cold one. Came back out and fired right up. Seems to only do this only after extended idling. I can drive it around, shut it down, fires right up :dunno: Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oizarod115 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 yeah, sounds like a heat related issue which would point to bad sensor or relay, mainly pointing to... the CPS!!! this is difficult to test but if your cps is original you should probably replace it even if its not the problem (today) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
