No light show, but the engine was still kinda warm from earlier so I'll check again when its dead cold. Some more context for those interested:
Bought truck 2 years ago. I put a new cap, rotor, plugs, wires and fuel filter when I first got the truck. Not because of any issues, but just as preventative maintenance since the truck was new to me and the maintenance was unknown.
After a few months, it started having intermittent stalling issues. I replaced the icm but no change, so instead of shotgunning I took it to shop #1 to fix, they said it was cracked pickup coil in the distrubutor. They replaced the distrubutor and new plugs/wires.
After a myriad of issues with this shop, lots of downtime, and paying them a disgusting amount of money, they started ghosting me. Every time I mentioned the misfire they refused to acknowledge the misfire and said my truck was running as good as it did the day it was new. They also contradicted themselves by stating I was unreasonable in thinking a 30 year old truck could run right. "Its just old".
Fast forward to shop #2, they replace the cap, rotor, icm and wires/plugs again, which got rid of the jumping tachometer but not the misfire. They also did the temp sensors and I think the 02 sensor. They too seem to think that the truck is too old to expect to run right and they no longer want to work on it. What a load of bs.
Oh, and both shops seem to think that I am an idiot for thinking an online forum will help; according to them none of you are trustworthy or have any experience. Whenever I reference this forum they scoff and look down on me.
