Default Check Engine Light Keeps Coming On

So here is the deal,
my check engine light seems to come on quite frequently lately...3-4 times a week, it wouldn't bother me so much if i knew what it was but my preditor wont read it and turning the key just comes up dashes and then it says -done-... tried a snap on OBD scanner NOTHING!!! Anyone have any ideas how to get the code, or maybe what the deal with my truck is

quick little background...

i used to get a code cant remember exactly what it was but i think it was something with running the rail dry maybe? i donno..

it only seems to happen or it happens more often when i have my preditor on extreme...

i donno what it is and i really dont want to take it to the dealership... could it possibly be that i need an oil change... its been awhile

sometimes my Bullydog won't read my cel. They told me some crap why it might not, bs, but they said to unplug the iat sensor harness where it will trip another one and then that code magically showed with the others. Kinda stupid but it worked. If I went to autozone and used theirs it would read some my triple dog wouldn't. Pos!

i got to work the other day and my entire truck was covered in fuel and oil... had it towed to the dealership and come to find out i popped the #1 injector filled my entire motor with fuel which in turn caused a massive oil leak... COST... free they just told me i should turn my programmer down .... maybe i could get a new trans.

Or stop running the predator. Lucky you didn't lose an engine.
