I know you have only had it a couple of weeks... When was the last oil change? Or how many miles are on this oil change? How dirty is the oil? I know when my oil gets real dirty, around time for my scheduled change I start getting the same stutters and even the same code. If the oil is real dirty I would do a flush and oil change...

This is just from my experiences since I have had my TB.

i want to change oil asap just because but had to hold on no money till sat the oil is still brown transparent a little dark want to put the best oil in it suggestions? oil change life says 50% but don't trust car lot special needs water pump too not leakin but a little loose and noisy when cold any heads up on what i need to expect to see for my miles also thought it might be ignition switch cause i have to move gear shift a few times sometimes to get key out

Prolly dry hump the head n double bang the throttle body. Touch up on the plugs then reach around and slap the O2 sensors.

Welcome

do you have any plans to lift your TB?

would love to. just want to pick the right setup! if i can get the bugs worked out ! my ign wont turn all the way off now so i guess the prob is finally clear to my truck just not to me. i pulled the relay for the fuel pump the other day to relive fuel press to change filter and noticed the key would not turn off then to.so there is something goin on. the tb needs the exhaust manifold it is cracked just like the rest ive seen . think it needs thermostat
