Just visit AutoGuysLand to get answer. But after the jump, check engine light off again and truck runs great,Any ideas on this???
Starting by checking for intake leaks, intake gaskets because they are common caused of multi-cylinder misfiring. Also, check crankshaft ignition sensor. It can cause this issue, too.
