Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
Yes. I've got the iQuad BT for my Android phone. Yes. Is completely wireless data to the device. As for old school displays you'll have to ask @Me78569 about it.

Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
I gotta admit that @Me78569 has the hardest job. He keeps creating new puzzles for me to keep attempting to keep my good MPG tune. Like everyone involved we all have different goals and different purposes for our Quadzilla. The common goal of all of us is to have a smokeless tune and all the power you can make. Like my 2 tunes are based on "Empty Truck" or "Towing" tunes both I want good power, little to zero smoke. My best displayed on the OBDLink is 450 HP and 1200 FT/LBS at the flywheel (Calculated power at the flywheel - Not a dyno run)

Crank no start
Wait till the "wait to start" light comes on. If the Wait To Start doesn't light up the ECM is brain dead and it will not start nor will not fire up the lift pump. This is a sign of a bad ECM and excessive AC noise issues from the alternator.

Birthday present came...
@Taz gave me a wonderful idea. I'm going to take my drone down canyon tomorrow and fly it either out the Denny Creek hay fields or go up on White Water Wilderness Ranch and fly it out there. Wide open spaces and no trees to mess with me.

Birthday present came...
Well I started out with 2 beers still not cutting it so I pulled out the whiskey and hit it hard... @Taz says "Never say whoa in a tight spot"

Birthday present came...
Don't judge the pilot. Still a novice at this... Also flying in a very light breeze.

Exhaust
I can tell you that it's not exactly safe. I've seen first hand now with a 2006 Dodge Cummins with both pre-turbo and post turbo where the pre-turbo was getting crazy hot like +500*F hotter than the post turbo which could still reach 1000-1100*F. Stock truck with just a Banks tuner.

Friday Funny.
I always got a laugh out of the whole nitrogen thing. By volume, dry air contains 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen,[1] 0.93% argon, 0.04% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases.

Fuel sending unit question
Mine is like @dripley fuel sender. I can easily reach 350 miles at a half. Then from there its starts to fall. In my older rigs I use to adjust the float arm to get near empty exactly. With the Dodge Ram there is roughly about 8-10 gallons at the fuel light so I don't panic really. Even my 1996 is the same way but its a 25 gallon fuel (V8 5.9L) tank vs the 35 gallon on the Cummins.

Factory bearing that I pulled off after about 150k miles where SKG.- Birthday present came...
Tomorrow I'll give the camera a shot. I tried a bit of night flying that's super tough. Blue lights are the head and the red light are the tail. Then its got a white head light LED. Damn thing is fast to disappear in the dark.- Birthday present came...
Here it is... I've flown it now 3 times. I'm now in the mode of tweaking the calibration and getting everything working good. Still drifting a bit much. I want to try the headless mode it might make things a bit easier for me to learn.- Birthday present came...
Your all are wondering what I got for a birthday present? MoparMom suggested I pick up a drone. Yeah, I said a drone... It came today and got to fly it twice now. rather fun to fly and feature rich. I got a udiRC FPV drone. Really quite sturdy drone. Flying time is about 6-8 minutes per battery charge. It charges off a normal USB port so I can even charge the batteries in the truck. It can with a portable charging pack too. The camera function works on your cell phone over WiFi. https://www.amazon.com/U818A-WiFi-Quadcopter-Drone-Camera/dp/B00SH3MU0U As for flying this little craft it not really hard but it does when you get some distance away from yourself. I'm enjoying this drone eventually I'll be able to fly by using the video footage.- Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
I did the same thing finally took the bull by the horn and went face to face. I suggest just playing with the stock v2 tune for now and slow tweak it a little at a time. There is several variables that will affect when and where the wire tap comes into play.- Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
Because you have to exceed 20% TPS value to hit wire tap so your riding on CANBus fuel only till you cross that 20% value of TPS. I don't go for the pre-packaged programs claiming MPG mode. Like mine is 6* of timing and hitting better MPG numbers than @Me78569 or @TFaoro on the interstate now. More timing doesn't always mean better MPG's. Like myself being I've only got +50HP injectors I don't need the heavy timing because I've got a good spray from my mild injectors so it lights easy. You can tune each boost PSI position with as much or little of fuel as you wish. So you can defuel below stock for guys like @TFaoro and get the turbos lit up and then cross back over to above stock to continue building power. Correction. It's not milliseconds... It MICROseconds. So, like I'm set for 1400 MICROseocnds fo fuel stretch. This is the added time the wire tap is adding to the fuel solenoid. As far as I know you just update to the newest App on your device and then update the Quadzilla Adrenaline to the newest V2 flash and your all set.- How Noisy is Your Engine at Idle?
Just for the fun of it. I got a sound level app for my phone and measured the noise levels on the truck. In the cab idling is about 58-62db. Still in the cab revved up to 2k on the tach it roughly 72db. At idle in front of the grill is about 80db.- 54k Fuel Filters
Basically any "name brand" fuel station in Idaho. Chevron is my most common, Maverik is next. Every great once in awhile I buy Cennex fuels. When Bio Diesel is cheap in Oregon I'll buy from Flying J Truck Stop. I will NOT buy fuel from Mom and pop stations. Most do not keep up with pump filters, use quality pump filters (water blocking) or sell any kind of quality fuel.- 54k Fuel Filters
Finally got around to changing fuel filters at 54k miles. Don't look bad for 54k miles. No loss in fuel pressure either. Those where install 220k miles I just changed them at 274,500 miles.- Stutter/ throttle cut out at low speed
I'm at 224k miles on my VP44 and its doing fine. Still pulling strong and still providing good power and MPG numbers. There is 4 things that will kill a VP44...- Why would a draw straw be abandoned?
Then there is rare people like myself that have been running drawstraw outside a basket for 10 plus years and not really had any problems.- Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
I bet the Quadzilla is a cleaner module over the Edge.- New guy with questions-added a few pics
- wipers don't park
The controls are in the multi-function switch yes... The actual delay part is part of the central timer. Here you go... - Front Hubs
