If I'm doing it right... I hold in the trip odmeter, turn ignition on (forward), it runs all the tests, lights, gauges, etc... Then goes to the keys in the ignition beep. I get no trouble code.

I have about 5K on a new Jasper motor, but almost 81K on the truck. Any suggestions?

Try this to read the code...

Key on/off/on/off/on

It should show up in the odometer after a few seconds.

What you did is just the gauge check feature. Do what the above to get codes.

Just pulled it... PO455. Maybe a loose gas cap? Will it go out or do I need to disc the negative battery cable? And a retarded question here, can I just use a socket or do I need rubber handled tools so I don't get shocked?

I've always just used a socket or box wrench. Just pull the neg first and then it won't hurt if you ground yourself to the body while pulling the positive off.

If you take off and put the cap back on, it should clear itself. I had the same thing this week and after I did that it cleared itself within a day.

Thanks guys!

you can swing by autozone to clear it too. what ever's easier

Just taking off the negative will not reset it unless you leave it off for a long time. Frmove the cable and turn the key to ON for 20 seconds. It will clear it but if you solve the problem, the light will go out anyway.
