it does seem to run a bit better, a little bit more responsive. I have a GLE coming and need to put in the turbomaster I have, then I'm done messing around until I get home. One thing I noticed, and its very hard to explain, but under a load at low RPM's like going up a hill, there was a weird...

From the scan log, looks like the idle fuel rate at 600rpm is 12.5

and I can do that with the car code?

Right now, its all I could afford. I paid close attention to the tech replacing it, and I'm confident that I can do it myself next time. So hopefully it lasts me long enough to get home to SoCal from Redding. I'll make sure I have tow insurance for the trip home, just in case.

Ok, so a few tense moments because the battery was low and I couldnt get a good glow, but we charged the battery, cracked a injector line just to see and cranked it, it sputtered and died a couple times and then fired up. First tdco was .09, moved the IP about a 1/4mm to the drivers side, did...

Using car-code, when I command the timeset, should I expect the desired and actual to both read 0 or some other number?

My confusion is with the TIMESET and the TDCO. If I understand correctly, the TIMESET will command the base timing to be set to 3.5* if the physical position is close to where it should be, the TDCO will require moving the pump to achieve the desired TDCO, is that correct?

Yah, we were reading about some of the issues with that. I have a car-code as well, just in case. But I'm not sure how to do the TIMESET with the car-code.

My truck is in the shop getting the injection pump replaced. The shop is not familiar with the 6.5L, but they are a good diesel shop. I just wanted to clarify the procedure. 1. Remove existing pump. 2. Put new pump, tech scribed lines on both IP and body and made a template to mark new IP...

How long does it take to pull?

I did the 3M headlight restoration, made a HUGE difference and took me about an hour for both headlights. http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pid=105013&id=100001262180060&ref=fbx_album http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pid=105012&id=100001262180060&ref=fbx_album&fbid=115813488470723

ok, well, I got it back from the dealer and I'm now at -0.44. Oh well, I suppose it will be ok for now.

ok, well, hopefully they followed my instructions and set it to -1.94. But even if they dont, I figure its probably better than where it was.

so the dealer reported back and they were able to move the IP to get the timing retarded. I wont know the specifics until morning. My question now is that if they set it to -0.5 which is what I think factory is, will I be able to do a tdc relearn and set it to -1.94 without moving the pump?

I took it back to the dealer, hopefully they will be able to get to it this week. If they jerk me around, I'll attempt it on my own.

I pulled the stepper a couple weeks ago, it appeared to be seized, so I soaked it in wd40, and the reinstalled it. I made sure it was latched. I can also see that its moving when the throttle is pressed. Would the optic sensor cause the same codes? I noticed that injection pump timing counts...

I got the ECT up to 180, and followed the procedure in quomacks doc. According to the dealer, they were putting a IP in a 95 and it was a priority because the one that they just put in off the shelf failed after about 30 miles. I'm going to take it over monday and let them have it all week if...

when I bought the truck it was throwing 2 codes. I've replaced injectors, glow plugs, put a 4" diamond eye, 2 1/2 crossover, replaced and relocated the pmd, oil change, transmission flush, new tires, replaced the wiper control board. When I got it it was stalling randomly, blowing white smoke...

well bad news, the dealer wasnt able to work me in, so I'm waiting until monday to get in. In everyones opinion, is retarding the IP the only thing I need (-2.46 tdco) or could there be something else more.... expensive happening?

I did, we'll see.
