My truck is a 1500. I replaced sensors Idle air mixture sensor and coolant temperature sensor. When engine temperature reaches 200 degrees it bogs out. What do I need to do or replace next?

Hello DON1RACER,

Here is a link that features an article with written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself. Also, I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning.

This is applicable even if your check engine light is not on.

Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com
