When driving at a slow speed and going up hill truck misses

It sounds like the timing is off but moore likely it's caused by the point gap being to close due to wear on the rubbing block.
The gap of the points effects the timing.
You probably need to clean and adjust the points.
If that doesn't work try replacing the points and if the old one are pitted, replace the condenser also.
If that doen't work check the coil.

I'm guessing when the engine light comes on, the computer is going into a default mode -- enough to keep the engine running, but not efficiently or with power. You need to get the error codes checked to determine what is going bad. It may be a throttle position sensor (TPS), or a crank or cam position sensor, which feed critical information to the computer.

CRANK YOUR CAR AND ONE BY ONE PULL EACH WIRE UNTIL YOU FIND ONE THAT DOESN'T CHANGE THE WAY YOUR VEHICLE RUNS, RETURNING EACH ONE AFTER CHECKING OF COURSE. IT COULD BE THE DISTRIBUTOR OR THAT YOUR PLUGS ARE FOULED OR EVEN THAT YOU DON'T HAVE ONE OR THE OTHER CONNECTED PROPERLY???
