Yup. That's a good start fer sure

Throttle body cleaned already seafoam ran haven't done gas cleaner

Did you ever check the little computer box I asked about above the spare tire? You sound like your having the same problems I had the box is like 4in by 3in

I'm not a fan of Seafoam, for the system cleaner use Gumout or Lucas branded cleaner, I've used both and they work pretty well. Fixed some problems in my '71 Buick that were similar to what you were saying.

Comin in hot wit the wisdom. Ur gettin good kid. Lol. Lucus makes great products

I can try do just Lucas gas treatment ? Put some in then fill up correct ?

Btw robert I can't remember what u said exactly on the box what exactly am I looking for or doing?

There is a little box that have wires going to it. It's runs your fuel pump its mounted above the spare tire pretty much. You have to take it all the way off its 2 or 3 bolts and look at the back side mine had a hole rotted right through it. My truck would run fine then start cutting in and out and and sputtering then run fine and cut out. Sometimes is would completely die but start right back up. Idk if your having the same symptoms or not

Pretty much the same issue I can def try it worth a shot buddy thanks for the tip I'll look and try thanks!

Btw gas treatment or fuel injection cleaner?

Try both, like I said it might be clogged injectors or a fuel system problem, or what Robert said as he has a good possibility there. But try both as well, one at a time. So two separate fill-ups, whichever you choose to try first, pour it it before filling your tank. Make sure you get enough to treat the whole tank though, usually I have to buy to when I run fuel system cleaner through mine as most small bottles only treat 21 gallons and my tank is 26 gallons.
