Thanks Ed92626.. the code reader is what I was told said the misfire. I made an appointment with my mechanic. Truck displays most of the symptoms of a faulty crankshaft position sensor.. I mean the truck is 18 years old so I expect things to go wrong.. I don't like to ignore a check engine light. Thanks again for the response.
