Ok thank you.
This is likely going to be a problem with the cam or crank sensors, possibly a proble with the fuel pump. The O2 senosr will not keep the truck from starting. Also, check and make sure the security light is going out when the key is turned on. If the key lost it's programming, that would keep it from starting as well. Can we check it for fuel and spark?
Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
