Truck dies during KOER test

KOER puts the vehicle in some strange running modes during the test. If your tuner did not compensate for these strange modes, then the engine can behave in all kinds of unexpected ways - that is why I asked the question. You need a stock tune for KOER to behave in a way that we can collectively support. Right now, we're scratching our heads and asking if it's stock.
To add sauce to the goose... I have Stage II injectors, so there is no "stock" tune available to me with a proper idle. Even with that, the truck still runs on a stock tune - I drove 400 miles with it when the connector to my chip failed. A KOER with stage II injectors gets very interesting indeed: Part of the KOER is a test where the ICP gets jacked up to 2200 PSI at idle. This overfuels my already overfueled injectors at idle, and the PCM convulses to pull back on the reins - but it gets it done. During the test in this scenario, the uninitiated might feel compelled to snap back on the ignition key, for fear the beast is trying to leap out of the cage.

I'm getting a kind of a bad idle or a tiny bit of bucking at 1500 rpms and trying to figure what is going on. It only really notice it at between 35-40 MPH I had oil in my ICP sensor so I changed that thinking it might be part of the problem. And the problem happens in every tune and my Hydra is loaded and in the stock setting the truck runs fine and has a bunch of power besides this and the bucking is very slight but noticeable.It seemed to of started after I blew my cross over hose and lost about 5 qts of oil but I capped off that line and replaced the HPOP lines along with the ICP sensor all at the same time and I have put at least 2k miles on it since then at first I figured it was just air purging out of the system from replacing the lines. At idle it was having a slight kind of miss but that has since gone away and that only lasted for about 100-200 miles or so. I need to get a new battery for the lap top so for now I'm stuck with having to use an extension cord for running my AE so I was just running through all the tests I can to see if anything pops up.
