Have a 2005 Cheverolet Silverado 4.3 Liter V6 Truck, was driving down the road and it kept cutting out all of a sudden, thought it was bad gasoline so I stopped and put new gas in the truck would not crank back up waited a couple of minutes then it started up drove about a mile down the road when it completely shut off and will not crank again. Replaced fuel pump, coil, plugs & wires, distributor, distributor cap & rotary button still will not start. What else could it be?

When the car jerks what's the cause?

Do you have a 4 wheel drive, is it in 4 wheel drive and are you driving on dry roads? Very very bad for the 4 wheel drive transfer case.

If not, it could be the CV joints, the engine, the transmission, very bad Gasoline.
If it's during braking then it's the Anti-lock brake system engaging when it's not supposed to.

2010 Camry V6 has a very hard time climbing uphill. I put everything new such as spark plugs, air filter, .... On a straight road it goes like a V4. Nothing special. Cannot beat another V6 ever with it....

the XV30 car.
what country, sigh. sold in USA< Asia and Australia, im clueless.??????????????????????????????????????
low power. V6 , what size V6?
is this car new to you ?
did the transmission fail to down shift for hills?
there are many V6s in this world some are weak and some are very powerful, comparing them is not useful. (at all)

the engines
3.0-liter V6, and a 157 kW (210 hp) 3.3-liter version of the same. The 3.3-liter was only available for the Camry's sportier "SE" model.
they had 2 here in USA. ( not 4 cylinder option)
so if USA car, its 150hp or 190HP.
both are mild powered V6.

its not a
2005 Alfa Romeo Brera:

2010 Chevrolet Camaro: 2 times more HP.
i can name 23 more that have 2 times your V6
so.... ????

my guess is you have never driving a car this size with 150hp before
or had car that was way more powerful>
?
im just guessing. please do tell more, fill in the story,
like how long owned
is fuel fresh or 1year old.
?????

No spark

Are you getting any spark from the coil? The first thing you need to narrow down is the spark. The ignition system on this truck will run without the computer. It cranks over just fine right?
