No.
To begin with, there is no such thing as vapor lock in the cooling system. Vapor lock is when liquid gasoline vaporizes due to excessive heat. If the engine got hot enough to turn coolant into vapor the engine would seize up.
Do you have trouble code numbers ?
no i dot have the code but my coolant hose blew all over the engine and got into the computer i dont wanna buy a computer beacause i dont have the money and my cousin was telling me to bleed the coolant system with idk wat it has to do with not gettin spark coolant aint eltrical nd it jst keeps throwing out a code for camshaft sensor nd i replaced it twice still no spark same code turns over jst dont start
Coolant can short out the circuit board inside the computer. Moisture carries electricity. You could try a used computer but it may need to be flashed to your truck specs.

It is acually called the vehicle speed sensor I do believe. It should should be located on the top of your transmission with a wiring harness attached to it. It should also have 1 bolt holding it in also. Whatever you do, do not rotate the gear when you remove it. Try to mark the exact way it came out when you replace the sensor. When you pull the sensor out it will have this gear attached to it which will need to be placed into the new sensor and put back into the vehicle in the same way it came out or you will throw a code and it will not be pretty. Good luck, hopefully I didn't scare you it can be a simple repair just mind your P's and Q's.

I have a 2000, there is a speed sensor located in top of the rear axel and I believe another on the tranny housing. Try the rear axel first.

EACH PLUG HAS ITS OWN COIL ITS HELD IN BY A # 11 OR 12 METRIC NUT ON TOP OF EACH CYL. BETWEEN EACH INTAKE RUNNER , EACH ONE HAS A ELCT. PLUG TO THEM UNHOOK THE PLUG AND REMOVE THE HOLD DROWN NUT AND PULL OUT THE WHOLE TUBE THAT GOES DOWN TO THE SPARK PLUG. YOU MAY HAVE TO TAKE OFF THE PLASTIC COVER ON TOP OF THE PLEMTEM WITCH IS HELD ON BY SNAPS, JUST GRAB ON TO IT AND PULL AND IT WILL COME OFF.

P0038 typically indicates O2 sensor failure or possible grounding out if the cabling to it has failed. Start with that as it is easier to replace than all the plugs/coils etc. Reset the code and cross your fingers.
