Do you have a code reader or OBDLink that you can pull codes with?

Is the engine symbol on the dash lit continuously or is it flashing?

Did this appear shortly after getting gas?

And how’s the truck running?

Reset your trip meter and monitor the mileage for a while if you’re on a drive anyway and see if the MPG tanks. Without the actual codes it’s throwing I’d guess you have bad gas or a malfunction in a air/fuel mixture related sensor.

Thanks for the info, truck is running great. Had consistent mpg the entire run.

If it’s running as normal and gas mileage is normal I’d keep on trucking and monitor in the days ahead.

Is there a check engine light illuminated or did that go off after the initial hiccup?

The second time I started it it had a constant orange light. I just pulled into the campsite and have not started it again. Hopefully it will reset for next start. The truck is running great though.

Thanks

Go to Autozone and they will pull the code.

PCM is probably reading a rich or lean condition. DTC is set when the rich or lean conditions reach the calibrated limit. Could be o2 sensor.

When you fueled up.... what octane did you put in? Running E85?
