“Seems to be a short in electrical system. Low fuel light comes on even with a full tank. Sometimes when u open passenger door the fuel guage goes back to full and the light goes out. The throttle seems to stick all the time I run 89 octane fuel in it and run fuel sytem cleaner thru it also but nothing seems to help. It seems to have a catch in the pedalwhen u first push on it. Which is dangerous when the roads are wet or icy. Because u have to mash the pedal so hard. Causing over acceleration. Also the switches for the four wheel drive go out when u travel over 70 miles without stopping. Dt”
