Was this just a one time occurrence? I know you recently gutted the turbo pedestal so I would triple check all the wiring and make sure you didn't accidentally break something.

Yup, cylinder contribution test. I don't think it will show anything but it only takes a second.

I would try to drive it some more to see if you can get it to do it again. Maybe try to find more symptoms.

Drove the truck to get fuel today. Ran fine. It only held 14 gallons so I doubt it was sucking air. I drained the water seperator(which I had never done before) and let if idle for about 20 min. Ran sooth as a diesel can run. Could water in my fuel have caused the miss. The light has never came on before. Neal, i'll call you when I find out exactly what i'm working this W.E. Thanks guys.
