Re: Rusty, crushy, but trysty.

Ran it today with the leaner settings. Much better. The surging is pretty much gone. I data logged the trip to work and home, the lower speeds are still richer than the cruise. I am going to turn it a touch leaner and run it again. Its amazing the acceleration around 1700-2000 is much stronger than it was before. Its odd that everyone says these tbi's are so lean, both mine and my father in laws with a mostly stock setup seem to be on the rich side.

Re: Rusty, crushy, but trysty.

Well a little update. I have the lean / rich adjustment pretty close to 128 across the board, but now i have a random code 32 egr issue. I replaced the valve again under warranty, and it has posted once again after 60 miles of driving, but its always at a slower speed around 45-50mph, odd. I decided that i really didnt care for the glass packs i put on it anyways, so while i was at orileys i got a set of raptor 2 1/4 mufflers and put those on the truck. Its quieter than the glass packs but still has a rumble. I am also hoping this will help with the EGR issue, will get some miles on it and see what it does. I also started working on my car hauling trailer, there were some rot issues in the floor boards and it needed a good cleaning and paint job.
