After putting the truck into drive or reverse it will go about 15 feet and then it dies, but if you keep the foot on the brake it will run. I am clueless on this matter I have no idea what is going on and why it is doing this. Can anyone help?

 

Check for a leak it your air tube or a unplugged MAF.

 

i wish it was that simple.

 

i don't get it. a bunch of people will post about stupid $hit all the time but when some actully has a real problem no cares.

 

maybe because we dont know that in the hell is wrong there buddy. You want me to make something up? Ok, its your dual-calibration module causing vibration on your harmonic balancer valve. So change all of that and you'll be good.

 

man that is a hard one.i had a problem today but it was the pcv valve got disconnected.are you sure you dont have a vaccumn line off. what did you do to it just before this happened. any mods. long trip.we just need a little info. no ses light>?

 

no ses light, all the line and connections are on. I just put a 6.0 with all the bolts on and had the pcm reprogrammed. I think that it might have something to do with the progamming but i am not sure.

 

yay it might. i know they say there is a security program in these trucks that causes them to die but i am not sure about that.i would talk to parish8. he has done a swap. maybe one of the guys here that has done a swap can help.

 

ssescalado, if you try to give it more gas will it stay running?

 

Hey, I had this problem when I ingested some water because it burned up my maf. Try disconnecting it and start it, let it run for a sec, shut it off and start it again. Thats how I got mine to stay running. Just remember you will have no acceleration and it will shift like a harder tow/haul mode.
