Well once again i'm back with yet another problem and i sure could use the vast knowledge of everybody to help me figure out.
So here's what happened. I went to pick up my buddy today because he was getting a new exhaust put on his truck. The exhaust shop is about 20 or 25minutes up the highway from where i live. Well on the way down to get him i started to hear what i believe is engine ping or almost like a ticking type noise. I've had this problem in the past and it only happens from time to time now. Well on the way back i thought i'd turn on the radio to try and cover up the sound a little bit and that was all well and good until i got just a few miles from home and the vehicle started to jerk, kinda the same feeling as when you're running outta gas (it had over a quarter tank full), and started to shift with a very poorly as well. This was after i had just gone up a large hill though so i'm not sure if this could be a major factor in the problem?
I got off the highway asap and it continued to shift very jerkily (i don't know if that's a word but that's what it felt like) as well. So right now i really don't know what to do. Could this be possibly a clogged fuel filter? Plugged injectors? If anybody could help me out i would greatly appreciate it.
