For starters my headlights dim as i do anything else but drive....then I "notice" that it feels like my 2001 has been taking a few extra cranks to get started....odd, but then tonight driving home on about a hour long drive, i notice on the pickup to pass a car a little hiccup...odd but pressed forward.
i pull up to a redlight just before home and now there is a noticable sputter. i stepped on the gas pedal and instead of just giving me a bit more rev, the car hiccups and doesnt really respond....i finally get home...let it run a bit in park and notice a few more hiccups....not in any particular rhythm, but defintely noticable...
i let the car sit for about 45 minutes...go start it....purrs like a kitten....no issue. any thoughts? ive read the board and have seen causes from the throttle body, to maf, to other sensors...to battery...
question is...how and where to i start. also, very strange but around my battery terminals...there is red discoloration....odd...coincidence? i have no clue please for the love of jesus help me.
