Anybody own one of these things? Thinking about picking it up.

My CEL will sometimes come on mid-drive, and most of the time it shuts back off before I have the chance to even park. Bizarre stuff.

most people on this site use a paper clip.

Yep, everyone uses a 2 cent paper clip. Any time the CEL comes on it is stored in the ECM for 50 start cycles or until the battery is disconnected. So even if it only comes on momentarily, you can still pull the code a long time afterwards.

Thanks for the tips guys, I appreciate it!

Pulled back codes 24 (VSS) and 32 (barometric pressure / exhaust gas recirculation / electronic vacuum regulator valve).

@Justin V and @mrk5 do you remember our Pole Hill run? Wondering if these codes are related to my truck's behavior that day.
