Replaced the spark plugs for #4 and #8 today...apparently when they "changed" the plugs last year they didnt change those and yes now it runs great and has 0 bucking or sputtering issues.

Case in point. Never trust what the dealer or previous owner says. Always verify the plugs are gapped correctly and other tuning objectives are taken care of. I'm glad you got it sorted out though. Doing things yourself as you can ensures your truck is taken care of.

Yeah I agree. The thing is that when I got the plugs done was about 2weeks after I bought the truck and I read all the horror stories about it so I figured I would let a "professional" do it. I usually do about 90% of all maintenance on my vehicles but in this case I didnt want to deal with broken plugs. However, in retrospect I should have just done it myself.
