1989 22re 4x4 stumbles and jerks
I have a 1989 4x4 truck with 22RE.
Problem: The motor stumbles and misses and starts to cut out. This happens when at operating temp only. Also only when driving at a constant steady speed. Press or release the gas pedal and it runs smooth with good power. Speed or gear selection doesn't matter.
What I have done to the motor: New cap, rotor, plugs, wires, Accel coil, distributer, TPS(2Xs), all new vacumm lines, repaired exhaust leaks, cleaned throttle body, cleaned injectors(new seals too), check coolant sensor(is in speck with chart curve) Timing is set at 5 deg with jumper wire in place. Has a fair to good idle. Check engine light has come on a couple of times. Code 25 and 26 same time no others. Reset by pulling fuse and have pulled neg battery terminal. Truck will go for weeks without throwing a code but the stumble still is there always. Sometimes runs really bad and I wonder if I can get to where I am going then it just smoothes out for a while and runs fine.If ya keep your foot moving on the gas pedal it runs perfect always.As soon as you hold the pedal still or steady at speed it will stumble. I am thinking 02 sensor but have never gotten a code for it. 25 = lean signal, 26 = rich signal. I have read all the posts on the 22re in this forum. Lots of great info......Thanks in advance for any help.
