TRUCK HAS BEEN DYING FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. EITHER WHEN IT GET TO HOT OUT SIDE OR IT JUST NEEDS TO TAKE A LITTLE BREAK. THEN WANT START UNTIL IT FEELS LIKE IT SHOULD. WHETHER ITS RUNNING OR WHEN I START IT UP. CHECKED THE FUEL PUMP, CHANGED THE SPARK PLUGS,WIRES, BATTERY CABLES, EVERYTHING BUT, IGNITION MODULE. WHICH I'M DOING TOMORROW. *NLM

SPARE TIRE WAS STORED UNDER THE BODY IN THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. CONSUMER WAS ABOUT TO CHANGE LEFT REAR FLAT TIRE AND NOTICED THE SPARE TIRE WAS MISSING. THE CABLE FROM WHICH THE TIRE WAS SUPPORTED, WAS DANGLING FREELY WITH NO TIRE. MY SPARE TIRE MUST HAVE FELL OFF THE TRUCK WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT MY NOTICING IT. I LOOKED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL AND THERE IS NO MENTION OF MAINTAINING THE SPARE TIRE HOLDER. *TT
