a faulty crankshaft sensor will eventually lead to a CEL. you can also do a continuity test on the sensor. you can also check the harness, make sure the proper voltage is being supplied.
does this problem also occur if you start the motor, turn it off, and wait longer than a couple seconds? like half a minute or so?

I made it to the very first meet-up, had to skip out on the last one, HOWEVER, I have full intentions on making the trip to the 3rd meet-up!! I am excited about this!
I don’t know if this is yet a suggestion, but maybe we can have small projects for the invitees to work on. Maybe like a friendly competition on which team can complete a certain job faster? Like, I know back in the 2012 meet-up, Eric was working on his Honda Odyssey, and I know I wanted to help out, but didn’t know how Eric would feel about that, plus I wasn’t in the appropriate clothing lol.
Just food for the thought!

have you tried “reading” the spark plugs shortly after the engine beings to misfire?

if the issue was a head-gasket, wouldn’t that also mean the coolant is getting less and less? i don’t see where the OP mentions the coolant is declining or i could have completely missed it
i agree with one user on suggesting to monitor the readings on the gauge with a separate reader to see if the coolant readings are agreeing with each other. a cheap OBDII blue-tooth connector with the Torque Pro app for Android phones would have worked, but the truck is at the shop right now so i guess we’ll wait for the response.

have you tried performing a power balance test on your motor? how many miles does the motor have?
here’s a is link on how Eric completes a power balance test:

when i did my own brakes for the first time ever, i never wondered about insurance or not. i would think it would be difficult to blame the owner (who did the brake job) the cause of the failure as long as the owner doesn’t say anything.
but like many posters have already mentioned, if you did your brakes for the first time, and something is wrong, you will know within the first test-drive 99% of the time. there is only so much that could go wrong. i think the biggest thing a beginner has to worry about is torquing down all the nuts, especially the lug nuts. the lug nuts were something i forgot to torque down on my very first brake job. never again though.
