I have a 2003 7.3L with 127K and after sitting for a week, I started it up and the Emissions light stayed on. Seemed to run fine but I turned it off and restarted it and the light went out. Over the next few days, it has started running rough (almost like a gas with bad Catalytic) If it starts with the emissions light on it runs fine until the light goes out (almost like something is warming up and disengaging). It seems to run but acts like not enough air or fuel or something. No Smoke and gets up to speed just fine. Will stall at lower than 1K RPM.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

I have changed the fuel filter and air filter (not that they needed it). I have also looked at the onboard diagnostics and no DTC error code stored.<o></o>

Any ideas?
