Limp mode.
Welcome to the world of the Duramax Protection Program. You either limped the tranny or engine. Odds are, since you don't have a programmer yet, you didn't limp the tranny you limped the engine. This means, your fuel rail pressure was way under it's desired pressure, so the engine protects itself. Now, this can be something simple or something expensive. A lot of the times it's simply a clogged fuel filter and since you just bought it used, I'd start there. Who knows the last time it was replaced. While your at it, check and/or replace the air filter while your there. Cheap insurance. Oh, oil change and tranny service should be on the list too.
