Workhorse runs intermittently

medjool · 03-21-2010, 11:12 AM

recently my 99? workhorse (with 350 MCI engine) quits while running, if I keep my foot in the same position it continues to try to start but it won't. If I turn the key on and off or push on the microswitch that controls the solenoid - the solenoid will actuate and the unit will usually start immediately and run again for 10 seconds to 10 minutes then repeat. For awhile the key trick was 100% successful, now it takes 1-3 attempts and the running time is getting shorter. Real hard to get away from dogs like this.

Any ideas? - the ignitor has been replaced, the coil and flywheel sensor have been checked ok, ohms wise.

Thanks in advance
