    Help populating PID’s

    I for the life of me can’t figure out how to set up pid’s in the dashboard. I can get them on the data screen, but not the dashboard. Please help! Trying to log the Kodiak and diagnose what I think is a tired turbo. Fwiw I’m still using v7.5. Thanks!

    Fuel pressure vs fuel temp, which is more important.

    So this last weekend my fuel cooler I put on the Kodiak sprung a leak. I think the fan rubbed a hole in it. I bypassed the cooler to get home and watched the fuel temps Pretty close. At the rpm and mm3 I seem to cruise at with my trailer puts my MPa 150-160. Im wanting to put it around...

    New 1.5 din radio in the ‘02

    I had stumbled across this radio kit from Reversion raceworks. They 3d print a chassis for a 1.5 din radio they are sourcing out of china. So far everything seems to work pretty good. Time will tell how it handles the heat of summer. Here’s the link…...

    New fuel tank on the deck

    So I got tired of the flat bed fueling problems, got rid of the factory tanks, and put a 120 gallon tank on the deck of my Kodiak. I’m questioning if I’m going to have a problem with the return line running up hill about 3 feet?

    Injector time…

    After our short trip out of town, pretty sure I need injectors. Balance rates were pretty high when I bought it, and after running some Hot Shots Secret thru they have come down a lot. But now the main injection rate is down and sometimes has a lope and no balance rates at all. The truck seemed...

    Flatbed build photo dump

    Well today I officially completed (but not finished) my flatbed for the Kodiak. Now I want to skirt in between the boxes and finish up the corners up front of the boxes. But everything I set out to do is done. This weekend the wife and I will take it on its first camping trip. Just an hour out...

    Been kind of a dream for me

    I’ve always admired the Kodiak/topkicks. I’ve been looking for a medium duty for years now and just never pulled the trigger for one reason or another. This one popped up a couple weeks ago and it called my name. It’s an ‘05, local truck owned by Ahern Rentals (now United Rentals). It’s a pretty...

    Rpo codes list.

    I just kind of half ass looked but don’t see an rpo list. Here’s a good one if we don’t have one yet. https://rvsafety.com/images/pdf/GMrpoCodes.pdf

    my second attempt at tuning. SAC45's and LBZ FPR

    Well after my injectors shit the bed, in quick fashion i might add, I went with SAC45's from LDS. I also threw in an LBZ FPR while I was in there. After a few revisions I've gotten it pretty tame I think. Still a little touchy off idle but I can live with it for now. I wanted to wait to see...

    Rail pressure climbs while coasting.

    I’m having an issue with rail pressure. While coasting it wants to climb to 14.5k while desired sits where it’s supposed to be. Also it doesn’t do it as bad after motor starts warming up. At operating temp it’ll only go to about 9.5k. As soon as the truck comes to a stop it’ll fall back in line...

    Following data log in the tune

    I’ve run across a weird issue in my pulse width table. While following the data log the mm3 rows follow the log but the MPa column is stuck at 190. Both tables (with and without pilot) do it. I don’t know if I inadvertently hit something or what. A couple weeks ago it was working fine and half...

    Shake down weekend

    Well we took the trailer out for its first shake down. Everything went pretty smooth. I had a problem with the brakes the minute I left the parking lot the day I picked it up. It would show a short every once in a while. While my truck was down working on the suspension and unlocking my ECM I...

    New owner ...

    I bought Sean’s (OregonDmax) truck. Everyone was right, it is super clean. I hope I can do it justice! Thanks for the transaction Sean, it was a pleasure meeting you.

    Converter’s toast

    Well I finally got my truck back from the body shop. I’d only driven the truck twice since I got it back before that. But it didn’t feel right at all. I know they drove the crap out of it and in 4wd on the street. I’ve already called Evan and we both agree the converter is trashed. It wants to...

    Truck stolen.

    Well Friday my truck was stolen from work. Missed seeing it happen live by less than 10 minutes. Security pulled the tape and a guy was cruising the parking lot (general population) with a Jimmie key checking locks. Hit one truck (another Silverado) and then my truck. Opened right up and he was...

    Always ‘save as’...

    I’ve been driving around on the first time I wrote by myself for a couple months. I decided to do some tweaks. It was really flat in the mid range areas and was making way too much boost down low. So I changed my timing tables, pulse tables, boost and vane tables. Oh yeah I went to town. Loaded...

    Time for the EPA to relax.

    So since the quarantining and stay at home bs started the air quality has gotten better. Considering the only things left on the roads are diesels in the form of semi trucks, trains, farm and construction equipment, maybe the EPA should relax on the diesel emissions. Just saying.

    EFILive Custom efilive v2 cases?

    Just wondering what other people are doing with their v2’s and cables. In my lb7 I used to just keep it in the pocket behind the pass. side seat. I have since been storing them in my Glock gun case. Works like a charm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
