85 Silverado 5.0 Auto/with O.D.-Cruise, A/C, Gauges(oil,temp,volt)P/W & Locks, 4-wd. Truck is like new, reg. maintenence (until undrivable)Problem occurred at random, ran rough a short distance, then okay slowly becoming more frequent and longer lasting. It has always started easily, ran smooth but now dies at attemps to drive, hard to restart. In park/neutral, no problem. It has been to the Chevy Dealer twice, not resolved, and their solution was $75.00 spark plugs. I know better-their condition was a result of running rich-not the cause. Last time it was driven, it started and ran perfect as usual but didn't get 1500 ft. then choked up and died. Removed air-cleaner, discovered choke fully closed. I started it, removed cleaner, watched choke function as engine warmed, open when expected then closed-up and died. Doors on cleaner open/close properly. Choke light on ONLY after engine dies. Lost qauges except temp. I see what's wrong-Not the cause!! Can NOT find tech. info. Please help?
