my 1993 k1500 pu with 107,000 is skipping, the tac jumps when driving down the road. I have a 1993 Chev K1500 P/U 350, v-8 I noticed a few weeks ago that when I was driving down the road the tac would jump and it felt like the engine was skipping not all the time and not a hard skip but I could feel it. The temp gauge was going all the way over the 260 line but the vehicle wasn't overheating. The guages were not accurate at times either. I changed the plugs, wires, rotor, cap, thermometer but didn't fix the problem. Now if I drive the vehicle for a say 15 minutes it shuts down and I can't start it. I have also changed the fuel pump sensor but that hasn't worked either. My mechanic it seems is just guessing now and it is becoming a little fraustrating, car repair is not my strong suit.
