Engine load
What would be normal engine load when stoped at a light. My edge insight shows an engine load of 42-47% when idoling at a light. Also when I start it in the morning when I have looked at it, it has been as high as 57%. Also is an injector pulse width of 1350 at idol a little high, or normal. When I hit the throttle it drops down to around 1100.

I was wondering about that also. On cold (70 deg) start in the morning mine shows 60% or so and a quick blip of the throttle (in park) will peg it at 100%. 10 minutes of driving and it's down to 20 sumthing% and I won't drive it hard enough to hit 100% What does this value represent?

Thinking about how it reads, and your input I can kind of see that now. Do you have any input on an injector pulse width that bounces around a lot at idol?

I haven't looked at injector pulse width but I'm planning to do a couple things on my truck this weekend. I can check it then. Truck is running good except rough cold idle and sluggish before warm-up. Runs great after warm-up.
Like cheezit said I guess we can ignore the load calc.
