This may be related to the probably clogged fuel filter that I am trying to remove but here is the starting problem:
When engine is cold it fires right up and idles great. Normal acceleration and no problems while driving along.
If I drive for a half hour then run in to the store or somewhere for a few minutes when I come back out and try to start the truck it may start but it runs like it is being fuel-starved. If it does start I have to feather the accelerator with my left foot on the brake pedal so that I can put it in gear without stalling.
If I get it in gear then I have to again pump the gas pedal to to keep moving. Eventually I can get a decent rev from the engine and get up to speed.
My thoughts are fuel filter and maybe a Seafoam treatment is needed.
Plugs are fine and ignition wires are good.
I do get intermittent Fault codes of 420 and 430 (Cat efficiency). Could bad Cats cause this?
All four O2 sensors are less than 4 months old.
Thanks for any help you guys can give me.
