Check all your vaccum lines. You may have had one get loose or cracked and wfo causes a leak which throws a light.

First thing you need to do is get to an Autozone and have your code read. Without knowing what code it's a stab in the dark. Post the code number on here and somebody should be able to offer you some areas to look at.

Choice of gasoline?

Could be your gasoline brand!
I tried Costco's 93 oct. twice and both times did the Check Engine Light come on at boost. With i.e. Amoco's 93 it's fine

Make sure you connected your maf connections back up when you changed the filter.

Thanx !went to the zone and got a PO125 code it stated low coolant temp (160)thermostat in their now also fuel presure low or loop stuff. thats a generic scan tool but, after that he cleared it. so I'm good to next WOT I guess.I know their was some trucks had problems with fuel pumps well see if I need a new Walpro pump in future. Maybe a tuner will chime in this thread.
