Dead Miss
I was at a light and the truck started vibrating a bunch. I reved it up some and the vibration stopped. At lower RPM's it has a miss bad so I put it in low and drove it at near red line for a little while and the vidration went away but the chech engine light came on. A few miles latter the miss came back. The dealer said I needed to make an appointment.
Anyone have any ideas on a fix?

Ahhh, the dreaded 'rev-tune'. Personally I'd find an AutoZone. They will plug into your OBD II with their scanner and tell you what the code is for free, Ken
