It's the harness under the valve cover. It stands for Under Valve Cover Harness. But I don't think it's your UVCH. Do me a favor. Unplug your injection control pressure sensor.



Let me know how your truck runs. Also, how much oil is on the plug.

Again, when was the last time you had a oil change? It could be dirty oil or even be low on oil.
