Default Torque app Android

Has anyone used a Bluetooth obd2 adapter and the Android app torque, was wondering what gauges our trucks do and don't support
I have a 96 club cab 4wd with the 360 magnum

Which are you interested in? I've got Torque and the cheesy bluetooth adapter, so it wouldn't take much bother for me to find out. Mine's a '98, though, so there may be a gotcha there in the evolution of the PCM's.

Depends on which adapter you use..... some are more informative than others...... I am hoping to get one here in the not-so-distant future for evaluation purposes. Shortly thereafter, I will be posting my experience.

I'll head out tomorrow when the temperature rises above zero again and see what I can do about taking a screenshot of those gauges on one screen.

My OBDII-bluetooth adapter is one of those no-name Cheesy Chinesey units, but it works just fine for everything I've asked of it. Not that I recall what all I asked of it... I toyed with it for a week or two when I got it, and it's been just riding around in the jump seat console ever since. It feels much better in there -- when I don't spend more time looking at the toy than at the highway, my wife doesn't whomp on me.

PCM doesn't have a clue what fuel pressure is. There is no sensor.

Well, bummer, guess I'll have to buy a gauge. Too bad you can't add gauges to the pcm to see through the obd2 port

Need a programmer for that..... (and not just the device, you need the guy to write the code too. )

If you hang a gauge inside the cab it'll be a lot easier to see than a v1rtu4L gauge on a mobile device. Also spendier, but spending money on trucks is like eating cake on your birthday, right?

Yeah, I think it is. In that you'll probably get it even if you don't like it.
