I think you two are right, my truck has run really cold here lately, I added
the 180 tstat, but its also been cool here (40-60 range). My times at the
drag strip have actually gone down since the Tstat install, so I don't think
its hurting anything.
Also, fuel mileage has been about the same. No significant diff.
I guess I'll just reset the PCM, and see what happens.
Would be nice to know what the P 1282 is, I know the P=Powertrain, and the
1=MFG, and the 2= fuel air metering, but the 82 fault code, I can't find??
Anyone have a FSM for a 2000/2001 PLEASE ??????!!! :)
I'll keep ya posted Steven. Thanks Guys.
