Idles extremely rough, bounces between 500-1300 rpm when idling. Reduced power can't accelerate over 2500 RPM.

Needed a boost to start it last three days and now today won't even start with a boost.

Something electrical obviously. Dunno where to start though..

check for vaccuum leaks first

but yea if you cnt start it anymore it will be hard.

no check engine light or anything?

Yeah, engine light and air bag light on....

Need to find a code reader. Shops around charge like 100$...

not sure where you are located but advanced auto parts here in va let you use theirs for free

ya and autozone does it free as well.

I'm going to call around and figure it out.

Hopefully I can at least get it started today...

chances are your alternator is done and most likely your battery as well at this point so get them both tested as well.

I was thinking the same thing, my + battery connection was loose for a long time and I couldn't figure out what was going to I wonder if that being disconnected and connected all time while running fried something.

The fack... So I disconnect and then reconnect the air flow sensor by my intake, charge the battery for a little, starts and then runs strong but my lights are on, my air bag lights on and my engine light is on...

Take it for a drive, get it up into 5-6k rpm, lights are still on but what evs. Come home park it, it doesn't say that I engaged the park brake when I get home and put on my brake. Turn the truck off, start it again and my air bag/engine light/lights/brake warning light is on.

It also can't read when my drivers door is open, but it can for my passenger door. Teh fuck...
