Cool more codes.....

so here are the codes i got...p0475,p0478,p0470,p01211,p0476 and p1668.I only get the p1668 code if i start my truck shut it off and do a buzz test right away.I ran koeo and koer test about 5 times and i didnt get that code,i also ran the buzz test normally about 8 times and never got that code.so i dont no why i only get it if i run a buzz test right after i start mytruck.

And a little more :

DTC P1211 indicates that injection control pressure was above or below commanded desired pressure during self test mode.
Possible causes:
incorrect oil or viscosity
poor oil quality

Caleb,

You are not alone.

I can drive my truck like I stole it or drive it like the old man I am and never get the P1668 code, but if I do a buzz test it sets the code. I just ignore it because the truck runs fine. If your truck is running fine don't let it concern you. Clear it and forget it.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

At least we both know it happens to someone else.

I'll make you a deal. If I ever find out why the 1668 sets after a buzz test I'll let you know and you do the same for me. At least post about it. I will.
