Ted, I'm not 100% sure its the PCM overheating but the symptoms are
fuel/spark cut off during hot weather, under WOT after I shift (5spd) and
then smash the gas back to the floor the computer is cutting the fuel and or
spark. Letting the truck cool down is a temp. cure.
I'm leaning toward possibly a faulty connect somewhere, that expands under
extreme heat. possibly the TPS. I'm also wondering if under extreme temp
the TPS is unable to get a proper reading because I'm slamming the gas pedal
down to the floor so quick it doesn't know what to do??
hmmmmm???? I'm gonna figure this damn thing out if it kills me!!!

Thanks for everyones help!

Matt
