so two nights ago i went to the LAX airport truck ran like alwasy..(GOOD) i got home parked it and went to work yesterday i come home and go out and as soon as the converter locks it starts stuttering like it some wires were shorting or its not getting enough gas.. i get no codes no check engine no nothing.. temperature and oil pressure i mean everything looks good... while it was doing it i get mad and give it a WOT and it just did it really bad.. keept cutting off coming back on really fast.. any ideas? i might go change spark plugs later today i already checked all the wires everything seems fine.. any input would really help thanks alot..

more likely a coil pack that is half bad bad but dont qoute me on that best way to tell is have it hooked up on a computer to see if it is not getting enough spark to a certain cylinder

Changed coil packs and nothing one thing I noticed is that after I take it for a drive that if I get on it hard when I let off the problem is much worse then if I just turn it on and go driving to listen for it!.. may b spark plugs? Dirty injectors?

Start with cheapest part and go from there, sounds like your getting plenty of spartk but maybe a fuel problem try changing fuel filter and or pump, but its better to start with cheapest part and go from there, If you have a fuel pressure gauge test that and see if your geting right fuel pressure

ok got the problem fixed.. so since i borrowed my cousins coil pack well i had to them them back off and give them to him since that wasnt the problem. while putting mine back on i notice the msd wires are hitting the headers they always have been but since i hadnt had a problem i didnt worry much.. well just for the doubt i take them off and switch all 8 around and move them so not the same spot hits the headers. (only some hit) put everything back on and was ready to just leave it alone for today when i go out for a drive and problem was fixed.. so AKlowriderz71 u were rt... it those that spark plug wires... going to run it like that for now.. will be ordering some ebay soon.. seen some that have an L shave at the end probably get those.. thanks guys for the help..
