1994 Stock TBI 350 w/4L60E
So this summer i noticed that if i shut the truck off to go in and shop it would struggle to turn the engine over when i got back in, like it was fighting some massive compression now. Once it got to the 2nd crank rotation it fired right up. If it sat for 2+ hours it starts fine again. I also noticed twice during the summer that while sitting idle for maybe 30 minutes, at a boat ramp with the AC on high, I went to move the truck and boat and she stalled. Only ever happened twice, same conditions. I did have an issue in the spring where the truck wouldn't crank at all. Battery tested fine, installed a new starter, still wouldn't crank right until i added a ground cable from battery to a starter mounting bolt and replaced the positive cable.
I have felt or noticed no other issues when driving this truck, except what sounds like maybe an exhaust leak. She runs great, accelerates great.
Now i have forgotten nearly everything i learned about reading ALDL data haha. This is what I pulled from sitting in the driveway cold start -> warmed engine in maybe 30 minutes.
Knock Counts: 415
Spark Advance: Jumps around 18-22.9
Block Learning Multiplier: 152
Block Learn Cell: 18
Integrator: 131
MAP: 30.6
IAC Position: 8
TPS: 0.6v
Battery: 13.4v
Engine Temp: 182.8
Barometric Pressure: 98.9
O2 Sensor: smooth sweep from 150 to 970 and back
Shut it off, restarted it: knock when to 651. all other data remained the same.
Any thoughts? One person told me, without knowing my truck or seeing any diagnostics, that it sounds like my timing is getting too advanced and making the restarts harder to crank.
