sounds like you have a power issue. You are bogging the car down by going up the incline. have your batt and alt tested and let us know the results.

Yes!





Oh you want me to tell you too? lol

Follow the battery cable. Depending on model year, it should run to the engine. On the back of the engine, drivers side is a ground strap that goes to the body, body ahs ground straps over rear wheels, and there is a ground strap fromt eh basttery to the frame under the battery. Again, all depends on modle year of your truck.
