I've been reading through a lot of "no start" threads, but I wanted an opinion on my situation. I also wanted to see if anyone in my area has a scanner.
Last Friday, I started my truck and it had an extremely rough idle for 5 seconds and then died. I haven't been able to restart it since. There is no smoke coming out of the exhaust. My filter bowl is refilling itself when I checked. HPOP reservoir is .5" from the top. Engine oil level is full, albeit a little dark.
In the last couple months, my truck had been occasionally stalling when I threw in the clutch, but would start right back up. It was happening more frequently recently. Also, the RPMs would drop and almost stall when I put the clutch in, too.
I replaced the CPS with two new ones, and checked every fuse. WTS light turns on and the RPM gauge will move when I try to start. Sometimes the engine turns over roughly when I tried to start it this weekend.
290,000 mile 1997 Cali truck. TS chip (I have since removed it in hopes of starting the truck again)
Would I get any helpful info from a standard OBDII scanner?
