Guys I have some problems that have stumped me and need input. Last summer noticed on some really hot days temp gauge would hit 3/4 and above but never would get to the point where I needed to shut it down. Now that it's cool gauge never gets past 1/4 if it makes it there at all. Also in summer if I shut the engine down it will not start again till gauge drops below 1/2 (acts like it's flooded). It will also on some days if it idles for a while like sitting in traffic or school line it will start to spudder and sometime shut off it will start back but it runs like crap till I can start moving again. I have changed temp sensor,both o2 sensors,fuel filter,cleaned mass air sensor & throttle body. Last week I changed out the old mass air sensor to a new one drove it to work (about 50 miles round trip ) truck spuddered the whole way even at highway speed at a stop had to put it in neutral and give it gas to keep it running. Took it off and put the old one back on and it went back to just being randomly crappy. So I changed or checked everything I can think of in no way am I an mechanic. Hopefully one of you guys can point me in the right direction. Sorry for the long post wanted to make sure got all the symptoms in there. Thanks guys
