Bad month for my Truck
Had a caliper bracket bolt break, caliper ruined wheel.
Transmission went out. $1900 rebuild, complete rebuild. Very Happy
On the up side. I cleaned my MAF, and changed my fuel filter. Wow. My filter was trashed. After cleaning my MAF I gained 2 mpg, and some horsepower.
Tommorow at school I am doing a real injector cleaner. Cant wait to see what that does.
Everything is great now, but when it pours, it pours

No. I pull the inertia switch so the fuel pump shuts off, Relieve all the fuel pressure by running it till it dies, then go through the schrader valve on the fuel rail with a OTC injector cleaning tool, and run Seafoam or B10 through the injectors by letting the truck run off the cleaner as fuel.
