Check engine light

I took my Six- Gun off the other day to send to Banks for re-calibration. About two days after I got a solid check engine light that stays on. When it first appeared the truck would not accelerate at all and then after awhile it ran out fine and all guages are reading properly. Also the overhead computer is showing that it is 75 degrees constantly and its about 90 plus here. Any ideas?

Thanks for the info. I drove it around yesterday and the light went away and it drives out fine so it might have just been the weather. Maybe I am not pressing the pedal to the metal enough.

Man, you guys are a ton of help. I will say I have a lot more fun getting help here than calling my dealer. They were no help at all and weren't even friendly about it.

Unless it's one of my very good personal customers I won't do a "phone fix" while on the clock.

Just curious how you "scanned" it.

For those who might not know...
I just found that if you turn your key off and on three times real quick your odometer will show any error codes you might have.

Also if have your engine off, turn your key on with your odometer mileage showing and press and hold your trip meter reset buton for six seconds, there will be an hour meter display on your odometer.
