Drove my truck yesterday after i got my power steering hooked up, all was well with no problems. The ol'lady drove it to school today, she stopped at mcy'ds for a bite of breakfast, whent to hope back on i40(Arkansas) and it had no power at all. She called me and said she was smelling gas. I though well mabey a spark plug when completely out. No big deal. Looked and had a small leak on the return line. Tightened it up no more leak. Had her grab a set of plugs to change them after work along with a new set of plug wires. Well auto zone can't get the wire I want till Monday so I didn't bother with changing the plugs.
Whent to the beer store to grab some cold ones for a good warm Friday night, and she was right. It has absolutely no power, and a knocking sound at the right load on the motor and right rpm.
All this happened sitting at McDonald's waiting on food. No clack, bang or spuder that she noticed wile sitting there.
So, is it a sensor or mechanical?
Motor is still under warranty so I need to figure it out before its gone.
