Hi all,

Weird problems with my dad's truck. 2000 or 2001 S-10. When cold it's extremely sluggish. It almost feels like an old 350 SBC I once had where I somehow fouled up the mechanical advance weights when putting the distributor back together.

Funny thing is that it's fine again after only about 2 minutes of operation.

Any ideas?

I don't know of any stored codes. I don't have a scan tool. Not throwing a CEL though

I'd check temp sensors, o2 sensors, and fuel pressure if it were mine. Tools required!

Air Intake Sensor?

MAF dirty?
