Check engine light (Need help!)
Ok guys, here's what I have going on. I have an 07 5.9 six speed w 84 k miles. I change the oil and fuel filters regularly. I do have (I think its a quadzilla brand fuel mpg helper on it) I pulled a little utility trailer last year with a Polaris ranger on it. I was approaching a hill and my check engine light dings, I lost power for about for about 5-10 seconds then everything was normal. I got home and checked my engine codes (I can't recall what they were). So I make an appointment with the dealer. They call me the next day say oh yeah, looks like you need new injectors. That will be about 6 grand... I about fell out of my chair. So I go and pick up the truck and take it to a place called City diesel near where I Live. They put in a fuel control actuator and said lets see what it does. So everything was good for about 6 months (I hadn't really pulled anything in that time.)
So, this past weekend, I hook up to a 5th wheel camper for a buddy of mine and pull it about 150 miles. Same thing happens.... I approach a pretty good incline and ding! My check engine light comes on. Same exact thing. Lost power for a few seconds, then everything was back to normal. The truck idles fine, doesn't sound like its knocking etc. When it does it seems like you shut the fuel off for a split second then it's back to normal. I checked for codes by turning the key on and off and it shows ---- then says DONE.
Can you guys please try and help me out with where you would go next? I love my truck and just want it right. I live in Knoxville, TN and would love recommendations on where to take it. Thanks so much guys. Sorry for the long post.
