Thank God for this post!
So, 2 times in the last week, when I mash the go pedal to A) get on the freeway, and B) today, pass a fuel tanker, when it get to about 4 grand, it starts shaking bad, and the engine light starts blinking for about a half a mile. It runs really rough the whole time the light is blinking. Then, the light goes away, and it runs normal again. I bought my truck in Dec of 2007 with 32,000 miles, it now has 92,000 and I have not be able to afford any of the maintenance due to loosing my job a while ago. So, is there any ideas what's going on? If I take it to a place with a code reader, and the light is not on, will it still say whats wrong? This is the newest vehicle Ive owned, and I dont understand the computer stuff!
