Have it read for codes, even if the check engine light is NOT on the computer will have stored information and codes. Discount auto stores will read codes for no fee. write them down.How many miles on it? Fuel might NOT be getting to injectors or the pressure can be very low. Check fuel pressure at the fuel rail
Yes I forgot to mention that the truck is at my house and I can't drive it to get it checked out.
Without codes or with being there, it's hard ti dyagnose. Buy a code reader, there's one in Amazone that's less that $20 and connects to ur android phone, just need to download an app. Or if u have the tools, do a fuel pressure test at the rail, compression test and spark, if everything reads good, disconnect oxygen sensor before the catallityc converter to see if it stays running if it does, it means ur cad is plugged up. Hope this helps
