I was pulling 2 ATV's and noticed my truck had a loss of power and the check engine light came on this only happen when I was going up hills other then that I had no loss of power on flat ground all the oils levels were fine. This truck has never had any work done on it at all other than change the oils and filters and belts.

If the check engine light came on, take it to a nationally recognized parts store and have them scan the computer. It will identify the problem. My guess is it will deal with an O2 sensor or the catylatic converter.

Let me know what you find.
