Hello all,
This is the first time that I've had to actually post here usually finding the information I need by some previous discussion. This weekend my car started to misfire and threw up the usual blinking check engine light and eventually the VSC TRAC and VSC OFF. Today I went through the coil packs and found the foul one, I replaced that, held the batter terminals together to reset and and boom all good. An hour later I came back to the truck to start it up and started for about 3 seconds and dead, tried 3 more times and the same result. I thought maybe it was a vacuum leak because in order to access the left side I had to take off the airbox--checked and no loose seals. I took the battery terminals off again held them together to reset and boom the car ran great. Drove it around for half an hour and parked it. After another hour so of it sitting I decided to check it again and the same stalling issue. What do y'all think could be the problem? Could the new coil pack be faulty--should I try putting in the old coil pack and see if it doesn't stall but misfires?
