Finall fixed her!

Well after about a year and a half or so of mixed problems I finally got my truck running like new again. Started with replacing all my spark plugs, then all the CoPs, then the fuel filter, then cleaning the MAF and TBS, replacing air filter, fuel and oil treatment. Today I dropped the tranny pan and it wasn't very clean in there lol. The magnet was gunked all up, absolutely disgusting. There were no sizable metal fragments though. Good thing this website is helpful about all this or that yellow plug might have puzzled me. I took her around the block after I put more fluid in and it was running better so I parked her. Well a couple hours later I went to watch a movie and when I cranked her up again a bad shaking showed up, I almost instantly thought it was a misfire. Drove her 11 miles to the theater to watch the avengers, awesome movie by the way. After the movie I went straight to autozone and sure enough it was a misfire. Luckily I had a leftover CoP in my glovebox and popped it in and she is running smooth like factory. I'm so excited. 77K miles on the odo and lets just say i'm not waiting that long to do that again, i've learned a lot about proper maintenance with this truck.
