Wait Light
Heading to work this AM, truck engine missed out 2 times, the second time the wait to start engine light blinked on?
1. Is it the CTS
2. Is it the Throttle sensor
4. What the heck?
Have not had the light come on like that while running down the hwy?

Could be the early signs of a wiring harness issue. I'm not sure if the CPS will cause that or not. I've never had a CPS issue (knocking on wood), but an intermittent miss is usually a sign of one or the other. Do you know which CPS you have now? The black ones are known to fail, but the gray ones are apparently not as accurate and cause strange readings during the CCT. I have the gray one in mine, and I haven't noticed any problems FWIW.

If the codes are down loaded will the cause show up?

I don't know why, but the first thing that came to my mind was an intermittent short in the fuel bowl heater. I believe the WTS light is on that circuit. I may be wrong. It's been known to happen. lol
Go ahead and pull the codes. You might find something related to the wiring.
