Wicked misfire! Cylinders 6&8 engine has spark, fuel & compression!
Ohh somebody said cranksensor, I've already replaced it
Do you know any thing about this? I think my cam sensor has gone haywire my mechanic said the timing was off and it was an ignition problem? If it makes a difference I swapped out the kegger for the F1 air gap awhile ago I've heard our trucks have death flash that throws the timing off a few degrees when the plenum blows instead of fixing it the right way since I replaced it no need for a death flash right? I wondering if I just need to get the pcm reprogramed, just throwing ideas out there
Cam sensor has nothing to do with ignition timing, it deals with injector timing only. So, if it was that far off, you would have an issue with EVERY cylinder, not just two..... Still and all, replacing it sure won't hurt, provided you get a sensor from the Dealer. If your crank sensor is some aftermarket part, replacing that with a dealer item as well, is going to be a necessary step in troubleshooting. Our trucks REALLY don't care for aftermarket sensors in critical locations.
5.2, 5.9, 4.7, 5.7 or 8.0 ?
It's setting 6, 8 and multiple. You need to be looking at why just those 2 specifically. The multiple is caused by the condition that the 6 and 8 are creating. Ignore the multiple misfire.
Tell me which engine and we can go from there.
has about 138psI on cylinder 8 and 140psi on cylinder 6
Tell me which engine and we can go from there.

My truck is also backfiring up into the intake manifold alot so bad to where it was poping the caps off my intake manifold (extra vacuum nippes), that is what has lead me to believe it was a fuel sync issue
