My truck has been sitting for a few years. I do drive it around the block every three months or so to get the seals lubed and what not. I recently changed oil and filter and flushed coolant so I am trying to get this street ready and got a moving permit. What I am experiencing is a bit of a shudder when I am stopped and when I go at lights. Not always, but bad enough where I almost stall out. I did take it on the highway today no issues. It was when I came back that it started doing this. My ideas are many on this issue. MAF? Bad gas? Fuel filter plugged? I do not think I have any breathers disconnected I did a good investigation of this. Fuel pump failing maybe?
Also, if this helps I did check all the fuel injectors with the long screwdriver with my ear to the rear of them as the car ran and they all sudden great and consistent with each other. Lastly I went though each plug wire to looks for any burn or damage and they are perfect. Actually they look brand new in my eyes. I seem to be stuck on one or two things fuel filter clogged or has water. The other is the pump not always engaging. It fires up when I turn the key with out the motor on every time so maybe it is not that. MAF seems unlikely. Possible all though!
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
