Check your air cleaner.
I still have the stock setup on my truck, with the intake up by the grill. Well, this morning I was going to make a trip to the local parts store for a fuel filter and I decided just to check the air cleaner in case it was looking a bit nasty from all the winds we've been having lately, and a clean filter is cheap insurance. Anyway after popping the lid on the unit, I discovered that during the recent storms some mice came across toilet paper and made a HUGE nest inside. I mean, the backside was stuffed tight and the inlet was even plugged rather well. Fricken Mice!
I think it's time to put in the mesh inlet screen like I always thought of doing.
And I just checked it this past weekend!
