wow....the fuckin starter....this is starting to suck-b/c the ignition module and temp sensor were not the issue I really don't mind replacing all this old stuff but damnit...this tird needs to cooperate w/me .Thanks ppl for the ideas...keep 'em coming I'm gonna fix this piece eventually. By the way...I have a V8 sitting right next to the truck in my shop....I really want to keep the engine that's in it-I like it for some reason

i own 2 2.8s right now man an 87 and a 82!
one is tbi and the other is carbed.if you got a light on get it scanned and see what the problem is...and check your fuel pressure!

have you had a fuel pressure gauge on it?
3rdcoastlow   +1y
have not.... can I purchase one for a reasonable price or what?
jsondrops   +1y
yeah you can buy them everywhere.i would check the fuel pressure first and if its good them move on..you might even have a bad ecm

might sound weird but i have a 4.3 vortec and it did this and it happen to be a bad cell in my battery maybe get the battery checked out or replace it
3rdcoastlow   +1y
cool...I'll do that; the ecm crossed my mind but I wanna be sure before replacing it. I'll test the battery too,just in case.

check the map sensor. its on the breather. if the plug is a little off it will fuck with it.

alright....all that seems cool,but now when I'm driving and it starts to miss/bogg in 5th,if I downshift into 4th and get on it,the enging clears right out and accelerates like it should. WTF???
