Injectors
Did you have those injectors pop tested and flow matched?

Morning Pic For Today...........Post A Pic around your place.....
Just for fun here is photo I shot not long ago on my Android... Since Android is part of the Linux family it doesnt seem to have the picture problem. The Server is Linux as well. Seriously I do know its a memory issue on the server. So if the site is busy and memory is nearly consumed then the large pictures tend to choke out. So I get around it by just loading up the photo and scaling down to 1024 pixels as the widest measurement.

Prayers Please for MoparMom
Nope... Jetta won't do what I did just tonight in the depth of snow I had to drive. I would of been in the ditch with a little Jetta. The Cummins hummed home at 24.4 MPG. Running just Level 3 of the Quadzilla, 4WD and about 45-55 MPH the whole trip in a near white conditions. Jetta would of been super dangerous and not having the weight to penetrate the snow like the Cummins does. If it wasn't for the storm I would of been home later but had half the bed full of groceries. Then you got to remember Diesel would consume the back seat making less room for cargo.

That's a very dangerous sign. When the trees are cracking and popping they are going to fall soon. Ask MoparMom about the one that nearly bounced her right off the deck? Then I've had over 4 behind the house break off and fall towards the house just missing by about 25-50 feet.

Greenhouse gases is over rated. What about 2 years ago those fire pics I posted where the sky was orange? Did the planet melt down from all that? No. A single forest fire produces more green house gases than all of LA California. So I call BS on most of that junk. How about the nasty pollution of China? Planet didn't melt down from that yet. Just looking at the weather here in Boise today is cold and snowing again... My 11 year old AirDog is still pumping 15 PSI on the highway cruising just when I get deep in the throttle it just enough to flicker my 13 PSI light on the ISSPro gauge.

Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
I wasn't saying IAT temp was alyeri,g the value but if the IAT temp is warm so is the MAP sensor in physical temperature being they are just a few inches from each other. Now considering temperature of the ECM now that might be something. Is it possible the cold is messing with hardware of the ECM?

When I did that screenshot the IAT temperature was 85F now it's 100F so the sensor isn't cold. After a period of high idle it still right at 90F for IAT. I admit this morning at -31F outside I got IAT down to as low 18F that's cold and would say that holds true.

Still got boost issue at idle... Other than that it ran good on my performance tune all the to Boise with temps as low as minus 31F. I made 19.44 MPG. My economy tune would of been better by maybe another 1 MPG. @Me78569 you going to have to look into that math again.

Mean While on Hoth....
First off... Global warming my !!! Second thing was as I travelled through Tamarack Mill I hit minus 31F and my Windows were freezing up. The old Cummins kept on rolling. Fuel pressure was a bit lower bit I only seen the low pressure light once in 180 miles.

Just as ugly this morning to the north and heading south in about 1 hour... Gotta run @MoparMom for dialysis this morning. Left the rest of the desktop for time and date of the screen capture.

ABS and Brake Light on, until....
I'll try that.

Mean While on Hoth....
Kind of right...I might wait an hour to get pulled out of a bad spot. In Boise I was looking at vehicles stuck for DAYS in the center median of the interstate. Same vehicle was there Jan 3 when I went down and still sitting there after the storm Jan 5th when I went home. The difference is people up here actually care for other human beings where everyone in the cities are too much of hurry to make it to work on time or home on time to watch the sports. So people have a mind set of don't worry 911 will handle his problem. Again up here people realize it dangerous and deadly to leave anyone walking the highway or strainded so I will gladly pickup people to take them to town for cell service or help or attempt to pull there vehicles out.

Hey There,
Injectors have a life span of about 100-150k miles roughly. After that point pop pressures start to slide off and decline slowly now showing much problems anywhere. Spray quality starts to fail and eventually the nozzles start to get pissy and leak at very low pop pressures which create misfires and excessive smoke.

So flipping true. Up here at home the bus driver will drive in all the weather types. Snow, rain, wind, etc. Sitting in MoparMom hospital room watching the Boise local new and in the bottom of the screen rolling was of all the CLOSED schools. Boise got barely 2 foot of snow in places. Nothing compared to the 3-4 foot in New Meadows, ID. This morning it's only -17*F here in New Meadows. Here at the house down canyon it +9*F. Still amazes me the highway quality up here is 10 times better than what Boise, Nampa, and Caldwell all can do. Funny how big cities turn into total chaos with a little snow but rural folks deal with all the time and its no problem and it can become 8-12 foot deep and everything comtinues. Local ski resort... Snow depths for now up here. https://brundage.com/on-the-mountain/winter/snow-report/

That be labelled snow is Rural Areas in the upper panel. Then labelled snow in Big Cities in the lower panel. Just my ride home looking at all the slid off vehicles, tell tales of slide offs, a good segment of a concrete barricade rolled off the highway, etc. Then you leave I84 and get on US95 there isn't any slide offs. US95 highway was in much better condition than the interstate was.

Fueling questions, Return fuel line and fuel module
At this time of the year fuel temp is not a problem. I see some pretty low fuel temps. It might warm up to +40*F. Like tonight it will be well below zero.

Hey There,
Jump on in... No one bites around here. Not careful they might help you spend some hard earned cash rather quickly though...

I 've made the same request at ScanTool.Net to add audio alarms. Yeah you can have visual warnings but does nothing if your focus on roadway conditions and can be looking at your gauges. So if it visual warning I might not ever see it on either my OBDLink or Quadzilla because the position they are sitting in.So audio warning is need to alert me to out of range problem. I've gotta drive and don't always have a co-pilot to watch the gauges.

It was only +7 to -10*F the whole way home today. It was barely -24*F in New Meadows this morning. Boise was having heat wave compared to home...

Prayers Please for MoparMom
Looking at the highest camera this morning for New Meadows it was a nice chilly -24F near home. Neck Boise is having a heat wave compared to home.

Remember to add an audio warning too.
