Hi everyone, my truck and I have been getting to know one another for about 2 weeks now. I have just gotten it legally registered in Kentucky on Thursday. I have been driving around on the longest of my so far journeys the past couple days. While driving I will suddenyl experience the car the sputter as if its running out of gas of becoming vapor locked. The car does not die on me though as I flutter the throttle so I do not stall in traffic. It lets me open the throttle some and keep it running but if I give it too much it bogs down, so I keep it running by giving it small amounts of throttle. Well last night driving around again (not letting this problem deter me from driving it downtown) the car drove all the way downtown (8 miles or so in stop and go traffic) without a hiccup, then while parked I decided to change parking spots closer to where I was eating (it would have been a 3 block move) when it wouldnt crank for me after starting then dying immediately. So I ate and expecting to tow it home afterwards, I go to start it and it starts this time and drives me 3/4 the way home when it does the initial sputter thing and gets worse and worse around the last mile I had to get home. When I finally arrived home my lights inside and out are very dim and the battery seemed to have not charged at all. (new battery bty and it sputtered on me with another new battery that I exchanged for the newest battery so that I had one that fit snug inside the battery tray). Today I woke up hoping to address the problem by cleaning the build up off of the ground form the battery I decided to try taking the ground from the battery and disconnecting it while the car was on and the truck died after struggling to live for about 4 seconds. Help please I am so anxious to drive this thing (haha but also very sad)...
