Help, I need suggestions
This morning I refueled the truck. Then I started the engine and it started to run rough. The engine began to make quite a bit of noise and the check engine light came n. I shut it off immediately. After a few minutes I checked the oil level and it was down almost a quart. What type of scanner do I need to use. What should I check first.

^^Agreed. Sounds like a VC Harness is melted.
It was diesel that you filled up with, right? I just have to ask. It wouldn't be the first time a station mistakenly filled their diesel tank with gasoline (or a distracted truck owner did).

rough running
I fueled the truck from my own supply. I have a hand pump that I add the fuel to the truck with. I tried my OBD scanner and it did not work. I need to borrow one to see if it is the code. It could not have failed when it was warm could it?
