whenever i am pulling or hauling a pretty heavy load my check engine light comes on. usually dont come on til i'm climbing a long grade but then it stays on for a day or two. i can pull the load all day but when i've been goin up a long incline it comes on before i get to the top. confuses the crap out of me. help. my truck has magnaflow duals turbo back and a s&b intake.
What do you drive and what are the codes???

No cat= insufficient EGR flow code because it provides the backpressure to force gasses through EGR.

next time it pops up have it read at auto zone. If its the p0401 I wouln't worry about it. Might what to invest in a blocker plate and finger stick, It will stop those codes form popping.
