check engine light on

6.0 9000 miles 6 speed manual. I was driving down the road at 25 and at 60 when truck cuts out and gets jerky and then smooths out after accelerating.
Has done it 3 times, now check engine light is on but running fine now. going to dealer friday, they said no big deal probably electronics.

any ideas?

Are you kidding me? This engine is controlled by electronics. I would carefully note everything they say. Who at the dealer said that? If it was a service advisor, I could understand it. To get the real story, talk to the service manager or diesel tech to get the real story. Document everything.
