So my amp is still dead in the water. I've not been able to find anything wrong with it..... soooo I hate to just throw money at a problem but ivy exhausted all other options. Anyone have any recommendations for an amp? Needs to be fairly small as it fits in the center dimple of the rear wall behind the ext cab seat. I suppose I could move it but I'd prefer not to.

Went out and fired Red up this morning, only to find fuel running everywhere. I had it on auto start and wasn't ;paying attention, when I smelt gasoline. I looked at Red and he had about 4 gallons of fuel under him. I shut it down immediately upon the find. He went to the shop today, to find that an injector o-ring had shrunk (could of been tweaked also)/ Anyways, he's fixed and I can pick him up tomorrow. Good thing the shop stands by their work. The slideback cost me 95 though.
What a mess ehh, how did you get rid of all that fuel on the ground ?
Well, glad it's fixed and you saved him. Yea that's a little scary, also lucky you didn't loose any coils during the debacle.

The PN1.650D with 400W at 4 Ohms would be my choice for a good, economical, compact amp in your application unless you want to take advantage of the situation and amp all the speakers (if not already done).
