Today when I was driving my truck the speedometer stopped working then when I was revving 3000 rpms in 2nd I shifted to 3rd and the truck stumbled but then went ok. A bit later I was revving 3000 rpms in 2nd and shifted into 3rd and the truck stumbled and wouldn't hardly run. I shifted back into 2nd and it ran long enough to get me home, less than a mile. When I pushed in the clutch the truck stalled. It restarted but ran rough and when I gave it gas the tack would go to about 200 rpms and it ran really rough like it was flooding out. If I let up on the throttle it would idle alright.
I pulled codes and got the following codes that were in the memory:
28 - Loss of primary tach (IDM), right side
29 - Insufficient input from the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
88 - Dual plug input control failure.
With code 28 does the right side mean when you are sitting in the truck or looking at it? I'm not sure if they mean passenger or driver's side.
Does code 88 point to a bad ignition control module or towards a bad coil pack?
I had an issue earlier where the CEL came on and the tach dropped by half which I thought was a loose wire but someone advised me that that is common on DIS 2.3's. I'm wondering if there are any other opinions.
Thanks.
