I may have stored a code.[hr]If it's running ok I would not worry too much.[hr]If you want to know what the problem is you might want to take it to autozone and have it read for free.[hr]Then post the code here and somone here will help.

I had a problem like that, I went to Autozone and had the code read, Three of them said something about EGR. About a 100 dollers later I took it to a shop and it was a vacume on the intake. My truck has no cats or smog and no check engine light. the computer codes tell you wear to look for a problem. It is a good idea after you have the codes to talk with someone that knows what to do with them.
