Unplugged the negative battery cable to clear a code and found the truck is working much better.
The tranny is shifting the best it ever has ( not going into OD too early and locking the converter at the same time). The engine is smoother and pulls much better. I cleared a P0456 which I assume was a loose gas-cap.
Anybody else had this kind of experience?
By the way, I have a 02 SXT. The way to read the code is to turn the key on and off 3 times, as we know. However, when doing so, make sure you see the odometer light before cycling the key.

I had the same problem, also trans was knocking when going up hill. DON'T have the dealer do a flash test on it. Gas mileage droped 5 mpg.
The loose gas cap will get you every time. I have a 2000 SPORT QC.

how long did you have the battery terminal off for. The reason i am wondering is because i just had dual exhaust installed and was wondering if resetting the comp will help performance.

You don't need to reset for exh but if you want to
just diconect the batt go in the truck and hold
the key all the way to start for 20 30 secs it
will drain all the diods and be reset.
