found a bug today. Since the ECM doesn't report anything over 204*f it goes to -40*f once coolant reaches 205*. This in turn makes Timing revert back to ECM timing only. I will put out a fix for that someday haha. For the meantime call it a "safety feature"

I am seeing that also. A TON of timing gets added when iat is cold. Been mulling that over.

no issue either way

@Carbur8tr I wish I could talk to the people who wrote the OEM tune because you are right, if revs are below 2k, and TPS is above ~25-30% then timing is normally less than 13*. As for timing pull vs egt's that will be a hard thing to catch on a log, there are just so many things that effect egt's that it will be hard to pinpoint to one variable. I am sure if we had a dyno we could do that. The nerdy part of me really wants to find out, but the logical part of me tells the nerd to shut up and don't worry about it hahah. If only I had my own Dyno. Good data overall. I am keeping notes from your thoughts so I write this one down to so I can keep and eye on it. Question for you, why are you running a timing limit of 5*? the OEM timing seems to max out around 24*, but it does it higher in the revs, were as your tune would max out around 20*. I am assuming it is a "safe" tow tune? Overall the tune looks like it is working well for you. EGT's are well within check for such a heavy load.

I don't struggle with this issue Anyways Jen has boots for our other dog. They seem to work well. http://www.ruffwear.com/Products/dog_boots

Timing wont work, the only ones that will work are the ones that mike posted on the first page. Our trucks don't really follow a standard per say.

that's the next thing on my list to try. I can only put so much torque on it with the limited room to rotate.

Check for a break in your IAT wiring to the ECM and ground. I would prob the IAT wire checking for any shorts etc.

Well to add another chapter, I did go ahead and replace ball joints again. My uppers did have a touch of play in them. I wouldn't consider them bad, but hte alighnment shop did. Same clunk however. I am getting tools together to retighten every bolt under the front end. seems like the clunk is always while the susepsnsion is unloading rather than when it compressing.

@KATOOM shush I want to see where this goes

Yea it can get stuck reading "0" and the truck is just a pig. I would plan to rpelace the map, as Mike said, typically cleaning doesn't do a whole lot. But if you are like you will just run it and forget and hope haha.

Just be careful that you aren't up there scouting for wood during hunting session, the DOW / DNR won't take kindly to that haha. I thought a drone was a great idea for scouting elk, but apparently they don't agree with me ( I obviously never tried, but others have)

So you weren't reading boost when it had no power?

Unless you are going to retrofit OEM LED setup don't bother. Internet LED PnP lights are %100 garbage. Retrofit good projectors with good zexons and call it a day. Output smokes PnP LED bulbs and you get the perk of a nice wide output through a projector. Mount them in sport housings and keep the haolgen highs as they do a good job of throwing light.

Hope the job change was for the best. Looking forward to more updates.

The pump lo wlimit % sets the min amount of wiretap allowed once pump low limit psi is reached. IE if you set it at %25 then your wiretap starting point will be %25 of the map. I can't imagine a setup needing more fuel than that off the line. It does not change the entire scale just sets a low limit, I doubt you would honestly feel the difference if it did set the scale. For me once I hit ~5psi I am at 30psi and at the top of the wiretap map anyways. Now you can use boost scaling to say how fast you want wiretap to rampup, if you want it to ramp up normal set it at 40 psi, if you want it to ramp up 2 times faster set it at 20psi. I would always suggest leaving boost scaling at 40 psi for anyone with bigger than stock injectors. You can also use the TPS pump min / max settings to compress the entire map to a throttle range. Then the low limit psi setting actually moves the entire map up and down based on boost. If you can explain a situtation where you would benifit from more wiretap map control I am all ears. I am always willing to give something a go, but I need to understand what we are trying to accomplish.

What guns? I don't own guns, they're dangerous

@xxTJRocksxx Any videos to share? I am jones'n to see them.

If the pcm i sasking for lockup then I don't think it is a typical issue we see with our 2nd gens

so when the TC is locking and unlocking is the ecm commanding it to do that?

Oil pressure won't do it. Your map could be stuck reading low. I would agree about no boos tleak if you have an edge ez

If you have stock fueling then I wouldn't expect smoke.

Test for boost leaks

The OBDlink is only able to read the data stream that the ECM and PCM put out. You are not able to actually flash anyhting.
