When starting from over nite or cold start, the engine seem to only run on half of the cylinders It want to stall, takes off when gunning the veh. After the veh gets warm, it runs great. Also the check engine light comes on after driving about an hour, the engine temp is running normal.

Thanks for your time

Hello, You might try to retrieve trouble codes, by cycling the ignition switch, on--off, on---off, on, engine not running, you don't crank it. If the check engine lite starts flashing, count the flashes to get the codes.

Also, use a fuel pressure gage, check fuel pressure.
