    Wiers sound when acelerating???

    This morning when driving to work the truck started to make a screeching sound when pressing the pedal past half way. Sounded like a belt slipping / metal without lubrication but it was directly related to the accelerator being pressed not RPM's going up. 1/2 to 3/4 pedal and it got worse but...

    I replaced the starter today, thank you NAPA!

    My truck has been having intermittent starting issues for the past 6-9 months.:mad: I have been thinking it is a charging/cable/battery issue as every time I have called out AAA to jump me we cannot jump it on the box or using cables but when I convince them to swap in a new battery in position...

    Where does this wire go?

    Does anyone know where this wire should go? It comes out of the factory harness which has the fuel heater and water sensor. The wire has been unhooked since I got the truck, the only thing I can reach with it is the ground for the alternator (which does not have a wire on it) or the plugged...
