Hey All,
New burban is working out good.

First code set. Was pulling my trailer...from a dead stop, traffic coming and stomped on it.

Service Engine soon light came on and stayed on.

It went out the next day while compression braking down a mountain.

Went to autozone. They read the code.. A PO 260, Something about a super boost sensor.

I went to the DTC page and couldnt find it listed. Would appreciate help.

Of note: Quite a bit of black smoke coming out my tailpipe while climbing the mountain.

I did replace the air filter today...It looked pretty plugged. Put in a K&N.

Should I wait to see if the code comes back? From what I have read, the black smoke indicates lack of air. Do I perhaps have a turbo that is not putting out enough boost as well? Newbie questions I know.

Thanks,
Brent

Correction...
It was a PO 236. After doing some more searches last night, I realized that Autozone had pulled a 236. I need to read up a little more on this code so that I can ask some reasonable questions.
