  1. It was saying 0.8 to 2.0 but that was at first start up. My scan tool was plugged in and i just happened to look at it. Tomorrow I'll check it at operating temp. It runs great that's all I care about haha
  2. Mine was saying 0% at idle as well. I checked today with the new injectors and now its saying 0.8
  3. I actually went up the street to my local diesel shop and picked up some real Bosch 275 injectors. I needed them asap so, that's what I went with. Now it runs perfectly
  4. Well new injectors are in and the beast is back to her self. I appreciate all of you who help me figure out the issue. Thanks a bunch!
  5. Well I have a place in town that pop tested my injectors (free of charge). He said they arent any good. They ranged from 220-260. Come to find out they are not real "Bosch" I will be getting a refund. May be a couple weeks before I can get a new set, but I'll post back. I appreciate you all for your help!
  6. well it looks like ill return these injectors. Here she is smoking more than usual. when i get into the truck and rev it up and bit you'll see what i'm talking about.
  7. Well I replaced injectors 28 days ago and I checked today on engine load and it said 0%. I don't know what that means haha. I think i can find a shop to have the pop tested.
  8. Thanks so much! I did follow the protocol when changing injectors and I made sure all the old washers were out before installing the new injectors. I will go for a run and listen for a suction or not.
  9. I replaced the injectors with Bosch 0432193635 RV275 28 days ago lol. But with engine at operating temperature the engine load says 0%. I replaced the injectors because I thought that was the initial issue with the miss and idle sound. but it seems to do the same thing. unless I got a bad batch of new injectors.
  10. I replaced apps sensor yesterday. Instructions said to set it to 0.55. I adjusted it a bit lower than 0.55 Same issue occurs as old apps sensor. When I hit the throttle while in idle the idle rpms will rev up to 1100 and not come down until it's in gear and it will drop to about 900rpm and it has a noise associated with it. I heard something about valve lash could need adjusting. When I changed the injectors, I didn't even mess with the valve lash. (I'm new to the diesel world). 2000 5.9 Cummins 5 speed. Thanks man for all your help!
  11. Lol yeah I know it. I just can't seem to think of anything else it could be besides the vp44. It drives great though. It's just the idle issue and when coming to a stop the idle is too high. It seems it's not getting the correct amount of fuel at idle or when coming to a stop. That's my theory.
  12. I checked the codes and nothing comes up on my code reader. No codes with the key trick either. What's weird is I already replaced the injectors with oem that's what I thought that initial issue was. But it does the exact same thing with the old injectors and new injectors. I went with a oreillys one. I had it ordered before I thought about ordering the Timbo. I will get one soon though.
  13. I wanted to show what its doing. i can still rev past 2k but listen to what it sounds like
  14. Well new apps sensor didn't solve the issue. It seems to drive great but the idle won't stay down and runs rough at idle. I did do the blue chip diesel test and with the vp44 hotwired it still ran rough at idle. I'm wondering if it's the vp44. I replaced the injectors with OEM and it still has the problem. So I'm thinking it may be the pump
  15. I did check the live data for tps at idle it was 0%. I actually already ordered an apps sensor. I'll see if she likes it or not lol. I appreciate all your help! I'll let you know once I get it.
