I just got a used truck, it always starts right on turn over.

Occasionally, it acts like it is flooded and will not turn over. The original owner says to uplug the battery and let it sit. Then it will start up.

The check engine light is always on.

He says, it does this 1 out of 8 times.

I think it is a sensor.

and will pin point the trouble area
