What did you do to your truck today?
I really enjoy baths as well
I did the same, washed, IPA wipedown, and put a coat of Son1cWax Carnaubavoure on her. I'll top it with some Ultimate quick wax in a few days. Also adjusted the MLPS slightly and cleaned the VSS. Have fine occasional firm shifts in 1-2 I'm trying to get rid of.

Took a look at my brakes. And I think I need new bushings.
Well I did not actually do anything today, but my body lift kit arrived today and I opened it up. LOL
Plan on installing it this weekend along with new body bushings. Last weekend I replaced my core support as the original was rusted out. I know some don't like body lifts, but I have already cleaned my frame and painted it so it will look good once exposed.

Well today I washed it and filled both tanks,and my front tank started reading again!?! Glad it's working again, and also had to fix my tailgate handle could not open it luckily it was just a plastic piece, cleaned all the latches and handle parts,and lubed them with atf of all things and now it works like a new one, no more slamming and miss latching . Shuts and latches with one finger!

Pulled the codes today.
21 - Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor out of range – ECT
24 - Intake Air Temperature (IAT) or Vane Air Temperature (VAT) sensor out of range – IAT VAT
25 - Knock sensor not tested (ignore if not pinging) – KS
31 - EVP – EVP signal is/was out of range – EVP
32 - EVP – EGR not responding properly during test – EVP
Though the truck doesn't run that much lately and wasn't fully warmed up, looks like I have some work to do
Anyone know any common causes/solutions for above errors?
Code 21, does it mean the dash gauge 'switch' sensor on the driver's side of the distributor, or the other one, near the TB?

21 is for the ECT sensor, not the sending unit for the dash gauge. Usually when the ECT is malfunctioning it will shut the engine down as a safety precaution.
I wouldn't even worry about any of those codes until you perform the test properly, all of those codes can be caused by not letting the engine get to operating temp before testing. Be sure to follow all instructions properly, going all the way to the floor when prompted to blip the throttle.
