[QUOTE="bigbrad123, post: 177978, member: 806"] Update: Still no resolution. Took it to a 3rd shop today and they claim they know something is wrong with it, but can't pinpoint the issue. Catalytic converter seems fine based on exhaust pressure test, fuel pressure test was good, cleaned the throttle body but no change, hooked it up to the diagnostic machine and no big concerns, etc. Agrees something is wrong with it, but basically said until something actually fails, he wouldn't recommend throwing a bunch of money into it. Said it could be lifters and a cam, but there's no guarantee until he starts ripping into the motor more. I'd still tend to agree all signs appear to point to an overall motor failure starting to happen or something like that. So.....might just have to hit the truck lots this weekend and see what they'd give me for it. Starting to lean toward a lease even though I hate that thought. Would love to find a very low money down lease and have cash in my pocket. [/QUOTE]
