Got a call yesterday from my son who said his truck started flashing a red lighting bolt. It was idling high, and while he was trying to get the truck to the house he said the rpms shot up to over 5000. He parked it in the yard and waited for me to get home to look at it. I arrived home this afternoon. When I looked at the truck the flashing red lighting bolt was no longer showing. I took the truck for a test drive down to the local automotive store and had them run it for codes since the check engine light was on. The only code in the system was a small evap leak. I experienced no issues while driving the truck. How should I proceed? Can he still drive the truck? Should he drive the truck? It ran fine today. I am leaving to go out of town on business tomorrow and need to know what to do. I have very little mechanical knowledge.
