    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    UPDATE New ICP, CPS DID make a difference. Or, maybe it's my imagination or maybe it's this icy cold weather having some sort of effect. But, I swear she was lagging way worse a few days ago. Now, the spiking IPR/ICP only lasts for a second and then snaps out of it. Also, it doesn't seem to...

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Exactly. But, remember they are WAY cheaper than a 7.3 Map sensor for whatever reason. So, if you do need a new one, it should work just fine. Not sure about an OBS. But, also if you put one in my understanding is that without the tuning to support it, it won't function any different than a...

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Ya, it's a fairly common thing now and gear head claims to support it. I'll swap back / borrow a relative's at our Thanksgiving party tomorrow! :) Also going to put a new ICP and CPS at same gathering. Get em all at cost! Nice having a family member with a shop! :D

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Great thought! So, I'm using Matt's (gear heads) tunes. I have a 6.0 Map sensor to read the additional boost. I told them about this when i requested the tunes, I'm assuming they accounted for the 35-ish psi I'm pushing.

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Here's my current working theory and question + a little more info from my test drive last night: First, some more info: The RPMs climb steadily until until about 2200rpms. At this point, the truck instantly falls on it's face (lacks power), the duty cycle spikes instantly to 50%+ and the PSI...

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Not a chance. Just put these injectors in last month with new seals + crush washer etc. Also replaced the cups and torqued everything correctly. I've done 4 injector jobs prior and i'm VERY meticulous. Also, I think there would be other issues if this was the case.

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Around what? I mean, what component? No signs of leaks (at least not external) anywhere. FYI: I also have another tune from a different tuner I use for trouble-shooting just this sort of stuff - it does the same thing. :(

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Sorry, been gone a while! Yes, typo'd / said that all wrong in first post. FYI: Duty cycle also buries itself at 50% at the same time I see 3600-3800 psi + loss of power. Again, this is with a new HPOP from CNC Fab + rebuilt IPR - though maybe I should just toss that and buy a new one...

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    I'll test this on the way to work tomorrow morning. "Edge filter'? I don't remember 100% for sure, but I want to say it also buries itself at 50% as soon as it happens. Normal / semi hard acceleration that HPOP never breaks 34% ish. All the way up to 3400psi+. Also, keep in mind it did this...

    New sticks plus tunes, truck falls on it's face

    Preface by saying, I tested fuel pressure already, holds around 60psi WOT. Recently put new sticks in. Rebuilt myself with 30% over at Bitteroot Diesel (nice having family with a shop!). Also did a CNC Fab stage 1 HPOP, new transmission with tugger kit and billeted converter etc, rebuilt fuel...

    South Dakota Registration - Avoiding the yearly Emissions Test

    For those of us who won't pass, barely pass or just don't care to bother anymore with having your truck romped on for a yearly emissions tests. I've heard rumors about Clay County South Dakota and a few businesses such as: http://www.mydakotaaddress.com/...

    Trouble Calibrating Speedometer for 33" Tires

    There's nothing physically on the VSS. Are you saying maybe it's an aftermarket/altered VSS? So, I did some more testing tonight. I took my tire size all the way down to the minimum with AE and it did seem to have a tiny effect. Before, it was exactly 10mph off at around 60. Now, it's 8mph off...

    Trouble Calibrating Speedometer for 33" Tires

    I bought my 02 Excursion with 35" class D junk tires. They were about 50% worn and the speedometer was about 5% off. I tried fixing this previously by adjusting my tires to 32" using AutoEngenuity. Odd, it made things worse, not better regardless of which direction in size I went. If I went to...

    Blue smoke on cold start...

    You're measuring resistance. Bear in mind that unless you are talking about superconducting materials in quantum computing applications, there is no such thing as zero resistance. Even then, it's "near zero". You always have some resistance and the way I've understood it is, less is better. I...

    OBS UVCH to newer style wiring harness conversion

    Thanks! Appreciate that! I already got the gaskets actually. When they came with the single plug and the new pig-tails, that was what prompted my questions about the conversion. I guess I was just being lazy looking for an idiot proof writeup. Will figure this out... PS: I wonder how long one...
