Hey Folks,

Newbie here to the forums and have a question. I was driving my L200 home last week and it stalls out and stops. Tried to start it and it coughs and sputters. From previous experience with stuff like this and the mileage at 170K+ I was sure it was probably the fuel pump. Changed it and not it won't even sputter. Fuel line is has pressure because I can drain it from the bleed valve by the valve cover. Would the anyone have any other thoughts on how to repair this great car?

Best regards,

The Dude

Check for spark. Assuming you have spark, I'd replace the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor and it's associated connector. About $40 usd in parts ............
