ok, took a small video with my phone so you can see and hear it for yourself…
Thanks for all the replies guys!!… I never touched any plugs or wires when I initially took the plenum off… I just checked the front 3 plugs during my diagnosis to check their condition… I had the battery disconnected a few times and I have tried that initialization procedure, turning it on for a sec and off etc, countless times… The one code I checked said it was in limp home mode…there are only two gaskets that would affect the idle and they have been checked… I actually had a mechanic friend here with 30 years experience and he couldn’t figure it out… Said that it sounds like the throttle body area or the timing… This throttle is drive by wire and electronic and I know are prone to issues, but a new one costs $700 and a junk yard one about $200…I’ll see about getting a video of the start stall and posting it here to give you a better listen…so confused!!!

Thanks Eric, I’ll give it a look… Strange I’m getting some other codes p2122, p2127 and p0113 would the acceleration position sensor have anything to do with my start then stall??

Got codes p1110, p1172,p1175, p1196… All related to the throttle body… Any suggestions… ? Already cleaned the throttle body… No change

I took the plenum off 3x…I can’t imagine missing a vacuum line 3x…especially since I was looking for trouble spots… I’ll look one more time though… I do hear a slight woosh after the engine stops… Starts then dies, then a puff of air, also smell gas around engine compartment.

I charged the battery once before, and was attempting to start the truck and it was a no go…I cant really test the alternator unless I advance the throttle, and then the engine runs rough…I have the battery on a charger right now, cause all the auto stores around here are down from the storm..so I figured let me charge it one more time…What I don’t get is…before I changed the power steering pump, I had the truck running, and it ran fine…I was watching the power steering pully for fluid coming out by the shaft …seals were leaking..I confirmed that it needed replacement, and just went about taking it out…the only thing I did was remove the top plenum to access the top mounting nut of the pump…when everything went back together it didn’t start…I have checked all connections numerous times, I have been working on cars for about 25 years, so I’m no novice, I know my way around the engine…I’m just frustrated with this thing..!!

If its as easy as a new battery I’d sh*t myself! We’ll see tomorrow when I replace the battery…thanks for the reply!!

Thanks for the suggestion, I checked the fuel pressure and I know the injectors fire…I checked them already…as for a vacuum leak…I don’t know….the car won’t run unless I advance the throttle…I didn’t like the way it ran, so I returned it to factory setting…I re check all the hoses…I have to replace the battery, since it is discharging. I charged it, and over the past week its been slowly discharging…could be that its an old battery…I’m at a loss as to what the deal is…
