I will guess that this is not a California truck.
So we are dealing with an OBD-I EEC-IV system then.
First off we need to see what codes are stored in the computers memory (CM).
We also have to check all the wiring and sensors with the electrical test (KOEO).
If you do not know how then go to this link below:
Fuel Injection Technical Library » How To Run a Self-Test

You can post the codes back here and let us know if the codes are KOEO, CM or KOER codes as the codes have different meanings depending on the test that they came from.

the only code i get is 111....all clear

it seems like my issues are in the back passenger cylinder where the pcv valve is i am thinking this because i have a small manifold leak near that cylinder and when it cuts out the tick from the leak temp goes away. ????????????
