ok guys this is gonna be long and ill try to be as descriptive as I can but its probably gonna be pretty vague
He was driving and he came to a stop and it died. Then it wouldn't start. Essentially the battery had no juice. I tested the alternator, tested the battery and both were fine. I replaced the starter which fixed the starting issue.
However, I was a little stumped on the other issue. The PCV was pretty nasty so I replaced that. I pulled the TB off and cleaned it. I also got rid of the stupid spacer that was in it when he bought it. Then I "relearned" the TB and took it for a drive. Started fine but same thing at a stop. The RPM's drop real low, bounce around a bit like a TPS issue then it dies.
I figured I would drive it a bit hoping maybe the PCM just needed some time to reset. So I go down a road that I dont have a bunch of lights or stop signs and about 3 miles down the road i hear a big "POP" underneath the truck. Almost like a real bad drive train studder or something and it dies. Only now it won't restart. The brand new starter almost sounds like its free spinning and the motor isn't turning over.
I just got it home and I'm over it for the night. Its miller time. I'll probably pull the starter tomorrow and see if uts in one piece and go from there. Any ideas?
The only codes are
P2320 ignition coil 7 secondary circuit-insufficient ionization
P2302 ignition coil 1 (same thing)
Those have been in there a while (at least a year or so) and it wont even let me erase them
