This truck is going to be the death of me...

Check Engine light came on today..hubby is taking it to get the codes

The truck hesitates on starting and while driving it feels like it wants to stall.

We were told the alternator sounded like it was going bad and we did have an instant where the head lights went dim for a second..

Could the alternator cause the check engine light to come on? Any ideas on what it could possible be?

Spark plug perhaps? Guess we won't know anything til we get the codes..
 






oops, sorry posted in the wrong forum
 






Codes will help with further diagnosis. What engine do you have?
 






Hubby took it and got the code it's a cylinder 6 misfire..we had this before..it's either the spark plug and wires or that box thingy they attach too...

It's a v8 engine
