Colorado has e10 so it draws moisture. Probably not the problem, but putting it out in general. Neighbor turned me to an additive called "Guarenteed to pass" it seems to actually work on a couple cars. 20 bucks at Walmart. ymmv as usual Some of those air flow sensors and things are finicky, have open spider web size wires and such. The codes are a starting place but we have had bad gas cause O2 sensor code, too; or failure to atomize and burn comes up as miss fire As for being mechanical, there are so many special fittings and odd wrenches it matters little. Being computer literate helps

My boy has a 2011 1500. He hasn’t had that problem yet. He changed water pump at 100,000 miles. Lol, remember when you changed the water pump about every 30,000 or so miles? Do you remember having to repack the water pump? I was just a kid and we had a neighbor with an old, old truck. I dont remember what make or model, but I helped him repack the water pump. He used a string type packing that was kinda waxy. Old truck didn't have a fuel pump. Gravity flow to the carb. Gas tank was right in front of the windshield.
