rejeep Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 my "never needs anything" truck needs some attention amazing how many stalls I had today while driving. had to ride the clutch hard in first to get it underway.. and even with that I stalled more times than my wife learning how to drive stick..hard starts (long cranks) were the result..parked at office awaiting some interweb diagnostic...could it be the clutch is just shot? of course with the renix, for all I know its a ground issue somewhere. 86 2.5L 4 speed... recent tune up, wire and vac lines cleaned..

Marine1Texas Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 You said hard start, and you need to ride the clutch to get it going, sounds like lack of power. Will it rev good in neutral? is cutting in neutral at 2500 and up rpms? have you checked the fuel pressure? This happens to me when I get a small pin hole in the line above the fuel pump in the tank. I would check your fuel pressure and see if it bleeds off quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rejeep Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 have not checked fuel... newer sender/pump and tank in place... but yes.. lack of power is the best description Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
