In park, the motor just revs way up at first, and if I'm on the brake as I said it jumps forward!

No worries about hi-jacking my threat... we're all here to learn (although general rule of thumb is that when looking for answers it's best to start your own thread)

But unless you can get in contact with the previous owner in regards to what tunes you have on the chip, I would pull the chip and then send it to Jody at DP Tuner (cost you like $5 with the priority flat rate box) Just give him a call first and let him know what you want to do (his number is on their website: dp-tuner.com)

Pulling the PCM is the easiest thing on this truck to do (in my opinion)... takes like 5 minutes. I used this video when putting mine in, so just reverse when you want to take it out (more or less but you'll figure it out)

Good luck!

That is correct... one way to check it is after the 0 blinks rapidly and you turn the key off...turn the key back on, it shouldnt show any number until youpush and hold the minus button (3 seconds i think)

He can go back and edit the post, then it won't show up if someone did do a search. I think that is how it works.

John, you can go back to the post about the No-start procedures and just edit the part about how to turn off the no-start, and all will be good

Haha, I have done that before. I work at a body shop so I am in and out of cars all day, lets say some cars are more touchy than others. The worst are the 90's chevy trucks that don't have any brake response until the pedal hits the floor. First time that happened I nearly **** myself.
