    Service throttle soon light

    98 GMC 2500 HD 6.5 diesel. So I accelerate off of a light and before I get through the intersection the service throttle light comes on and truck loses power big time until it revs up a bit. I'm changing the app this weekend hoping that's what it is from what I've read so we'll see. Anyone have...

    fuel mileage sucks

    So my truck (98 GMC 2500 HD 6.5 diesel, 302,000kms) wouldn't stay running and would throw a code for injector pump cam something or other.
