    All those codes could have manifested from a single failure or fault, but the codes help with a starting point.

    Not trying to sound like an asss but you would save a lot more money getting it done right to begin with. Stop throwing parts at it cause you could either end up replacing things not needed or creating even more problems in the process. With all the money spent on parts that didn't fix the truck you could have paid to have it diagnosed and have the problem pinpointed.

      Everyone is saying ecm is out. I'm resetting the comp. to see if different ones come if so then it's the comp. But I get what your saying, I just feel I should save the 55$ an hour and do it my self

        that's another shot in the dark bro, resetting the memory is just gonna restart the cycle and if the fault or failure that caused those codes go dormant or doesn't show right away then you'll be spending money on a pcm that didn't need replacing.

        The parameters in which some of those components or systems are allowed to fail before triggering a fault code are pretty wide, you could be screwing yourself even worse by erasing the codes.

        Also the logic that if different codes pop up after resetting to determine a bad pcm is a very poor one, based on the information/history you've given about the symptoms.

          I understand you wanna save some money but replacing parts till you finally replace something that makes the truck run doesn't sound like the most cost effective route to take.

              Okay so today I decided to replace the tps AGAIN except I got a more expensive one. Turns out that's all I needed. 700$ later, it turns out to be a 27$ f***ing part. Excuse the language

                Anyone know the correct position a distributor has to be when you install it? I know it has to be pointing at #1 but is there a certain way the distributor itself sits
