My 1st gen had a fit the other night. I have no idea what happened. I started it & it was misfiring a little. I still drove it thinking I'd deal with it later. It still ran decently.
Parked & a few hours later tried to go home.
I slowed down for a light & the engine died. I was able to put it in N & restart but it sputtered & I had to give it gas to not die again. It was misfiring really bad, CEL was on & every time I slowed down it would die. I couldn't get over 45mph either without the truck stalling. It did this for about 5 miles to get home. Didn't think I was going to make it.
Then as I was turning onto my street after restarting I heard a boom sound(back fire maybe) & the X started to run fine.
This morning I looked everything over, plugs & wires are good, MAS is good, IAC TPS fine. No vacuum leaks. The thing seems to run perfectly fine now....
WTF?
I'm thinking maybe the coil pack? 93 & it's original. No codes as I disconnected the battery for 10 minutes this morning.
