Hey Guys-

I just picked up my L last week and it runs like a champ. The truck is bone stock, except for a 2/4 drop. Driving into work this morning, I put the truck in reverse to back into my spot and it shuddered and shut off. It started right back up, and idled fine after.

Any clue where to begin diagnosing, or just something to monitor?

Thanks

Mine has a 4lb lower and many other mods. When my truck is cold and still idling high and I put it in reverse it will get real close to dying then pick itself back up. I think it may have died once. It will also do the same thing if I just quickly jab the throttle (barely hit it fast and let go) while in drive or reverse. I think it is normal.

Hmm. I don't know. I have never had a problem with it and it has always done it.

What other mods do you have? I have CAI, SBTB, C&L elbow and plenum, Steig Stage IV, and full exhaust.
