Romps
This morning temps around 39F, start truck and the romps start. Nothing to be to alarmed about. Truck runs a little rough and then wants to die, I give it the foot feed slightly to keep it going and then the SES light comes on. I let off ok the pedal and she dies. Start her back up and hold the pedal down to level off the motor and she continues to run. So I leave her run while I go change for work. When I come back the SES had shut off, so I pull out the diablo sport tuner and pull the codes. I pulled P1280 and P0470. I cleared the codes and I am taking her to work. Anything I need to be overly concerned with today, I think one refers to the exhaust back pressure tube and one to the IDM. But please correct me a point me in the right direction.

What type oil are you using? I found that switching from 15w-40 dino oil to 5w-40 synthetic cured my romps for good. My truck did the exact thing until I switched. I never noticed my SES light going off but it's been so long ago when it happened that it might have.

X2 on the 5w-40 sync..With the truck needing a oil change,that is more that likely your issue
