hard start and check engine light since moving from lower altitude

What is your question?

Won't start if left off for more than two days. Once started, starts again first time every time within 2 days. Then won't start unless jumped and gas pumped repeatedly. Battery always checks out good. Dealer says no drain on battery, no codes on computer. Engine runs fine. Check engine light has been on for 12 years - truck runs fine and passes emissions, but CO now requires no check engine lite. No codes on computer - dealer and repair shops can't fix. Could it be altitude - how to reset computer?
