Now that you say you have a " bully dog pmt " that could be your problem so why not unhook it and see if you still have the problem!

Any time you have a running issue and have power enhancers plugged in its wise to put it back to stock and then see what the issue is if its not corrected by taking it out of the system.

Seriously you are not going to get much help with an attitude like that. Guys are offering to help you, why would you start to call them out?

No one was knocking you.But I will now.Learn to spell or use SPELL CHECK and proper grammar.It will serve you in good stead in the years in front of you.Mine is far from ok at times but yours is really bad.

Actually the stock setting does not always fix an issue. The box is still operational but not modifying the settings but it still has the potential to impact operations. So remove it to remove all doubt.

As for the spelling well that will also impact peoples responses to your questions and comments but the tone is what will hurt you the most.
