    I have a 98 Peterbilt 379 with a c-15 just did an oil change when I went on days off changed fuel filters to and when I came back driving going up a hill it will miss fire as if my fuel filters were dirty or something cutting the engine for a second then throwing white smoke and coming back on any suggestions?

    Change the relay behind the pyrometer panel on the left side of your dash

    They are being read. the problem is that not many people running a 93 pete 379 let alone had the dash apart in one. So if you get any response, it would be mostly from someone not familiar at all with those electorincs behind the dash. They are just taking a stab. I for one have an 2002 379 and know the truck inside and out but i have no idea where to tell you to look. Layout and harness is different. Your best bet is to do what i would do, pull the dash panels off and start testing and chasing wires
