So back in sept we had a freak snow storm with very heavy wet sticky snow, i was driving to work when my truck began to feel very labored and having issues driving. So i pulled over and stuck my head under it and i had slushy snow packed from the bottom of the truck to the frame rail. I could not even take the truck out of drive. The drive shaft was trying to spin through the snow and causing the truck to work harder.
I went home and got all the snow cleared out by spraying hot water under it. After all the snow was clear the truck ran like crap, it would want to stall and die when idleing, and felt like it had no power until you floored it, then it would rev up and run like normal. After a few days it went back to normal and it has been running perfect. Last night it snowed again with similar snow, I began driving home from my girlfriends when it started again. I poked my head under and snow had begun to build up in a similar way.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? A little info on the truck, 1994 k1500 340,000km original motor tbi 350 volant cai, mid length headers with 3in exhaust. Had a full tune up this summer, Had new fuel pump 1.5 yrs ago, fully rebuilt trans last winter.
