Well, yesterday I experienced some trouble with my Dak. Basically it would cut off on my like someone turning off the key. I was delivering a motorcycle I sold to PA; so, at least it started on the return trip and I DID make it home.
When this problem happened sometimes the truck would restart right away and at other times you'd have to crank it some. The CEL did not come on. But, when I got home, I hooked the truck up and got a #1 coil DTC and an engine did not reach operating temp fast enough DTC. So, I took out the Accel coil that I had been running for years and put back in the stock coil. Hopefully this will fix the #1 coil DTC. Also, I replaced the coolant temp sensor about 1-2 years ago. Do you think the truck not heating up fast enough DTC would be from the temp sensor? I do have a lower thermostat in the truck; but, I've never received this DTC before. Additionally, about 1-2 years ago I replaced the temp sensor in the intake.
Any other ideas or suggestions on my truck's problems?
Also, where can you get the connectors that plug into the sensors? I noticed yesterday when checking some connections that the clip that prevents the plug from pulling off of the intake temp sensor was broken off. The plug is good. Just the clip that prevents it from being accidentally pulled off or vibrating off is broken off.
Thanks,
