Hi,

I would be happy to help, but I need more information. You indicated Cheyenne. That is a package. I need confirmation if this is a truck or an SUV. Also, I need the engine size.

In addition, let me know if the check engine light is staying on while the engine is running. Let me know. Also, in the interim, here is a link you may find helpful:

Let me know,
