Yesterday I started up the truck (cold start) and it ran like crap. It sounded like it was running on half the cylinders. I tried to get going in it, but it wouldn't even accelerate without stumbling and nearly cutting out.

I stopped the truck, restarted the engine, and everything was fine afterwards. Sounds like there was some sort of computer glitch that was corrected with a restart. (reboot?)

I had no problems the rest of the day.

At first I thought this was part of the exhaust cleaning, but it ran too bad to be that.

Anyone every have this happen?

Mileage is 11,000 miles.

I had the same proper when installing my edge programmer, but then edge sent me another one and it has run fine ever since. I would definatly say its your computer.

It's been a week and the problem hasn't happened again. I'm not too worried about it. I didn't get a check engine light. Do these trucks have one?? I see the check engine when I start the truck, so I assume there is one.
