no its definitely the one wildman's talkin about. i knew about the needle adjustment on the column. kinda hard to miss it when changing the heater core lmao!

i got the truck in park now, and will adjust the rest of it tomorrow. starting to lose light, and its getting cold. started snowing again WTF! only flurries though(thank god!).

she sounds soooooooo good when revving her up. cant wait to get the custom tune installed, so i can really give it to her....

So what about extending the o2 wires? I actually have a couple old ones we can use the wires from.

Ok bud, don't forget the grease and the liquid tape. Just solder and shrink wrap isn't going to last.

hmmmm... well i havent driven it since yesterday, now i need to get another new bushing for the rod that comes down from the steering column.

i set fuel sync to 0 tonight, because it was jumping from 6+ to 8+... but theres an issue. at times when im revving the motor it will backfire through the throttle body. firing order is correct, fuel sync is jumping from -1, to +1. so thats spot on.

any ideas? its very strange! could it be a tune issue?

Was it backfiring before you change fuel synch?

Only other thing I can think of (long shot) would be if CPS is secure. But then again, I think you would see erratic fuel synch.

Is you Snap ON a MT or MTG? If MTG, maybe graph fuel synch while ruunning and backfire to see what it looks like, then same thing with upstream O2.

no, its only the mt2500... i wonder if i swap out the pickup from the 5.2, if that would work.

also, i just remembered... there was one wire on the upstream o2 that had a portion of bare wire by the base of the sensor. would that cause a problem?
