Message: [QUOTE="cbuttre835, post: 1486724, member: 1190"] Turns out mine wasn't easy after all. I warmed it up with the APCM Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week. Was in a hurry to get to work Thursday, didn't warm it up, quit a mile from home. AutoEnginuity (Thanks RiffRaff Diesel) arrived Thursday night. Put it on there tonight (Friday). It restarted after about 5-7 seconds of cranking. ICP Duty Cycle was 18-20%. Ran pretty rough. As it warmed up, ICP Duty Cycle settled to 10%. 500 PSI ICP. Ran smooth as silk. The KOER Cyl Contribution test reported #8 bad 3 times. (Isn't that the cackling injector?) The engine never changed sound though. The CC Test on the OBS trucks, it idles up fast and you can definitely tell when a cylinder is dropped. The 10% / 500 PSI values are what I'm used to seeing on my OBS 7.3s. Do the split-shot injectors make a difference? I'd think they would. I had an OBS truck that went through two IPR valves, as they wore the ICP DC at idle would creep up to 14-15% and it eventually wouldn't start back hot, because it wouldn't build ICP. I wouldn't expect duty cycle to drop as engine oil thinned as it did on this truck. But, it had been in a non-running condition and had set 36 hrs. So there's that. Gonna let it cool, and try to log data and see if I can get it to act up again. Interested in any thoughts. [/QUOTE]
