hey tugly can you look at this graph and tell me what you think?
I recently had a P132B and P0278 code. truck info is in my sig. and I have the inferd EBP (calculated) so I don't actually get a EBP reading with AE

Im trying to post a session from AE, but can't get it to stick to my post. I changed the last 3 letters to a .doc, but it still won't stick. Do I have to upload it to a gallery first? I'm totally inept at technology, but have my wife working on it. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

How big is the file size? The limit is 1.89 meg.
When I do it, I just change the three after the dot from "csv" to "doc" (or similar) and hit the paperclip above the reply window to attach it.
If it comes to pulling hair, PM me and we can do an email thing.

I got the file. I set up instructions on how to make a file ready for attachments, everybody can find it here: [LINK]
I see the four PIDs you recorded. Your ICP is reaching levels expected on a stock truck, and you're getting over 18 PSI boost. I know that tells you little, but the data tells little. Your oil warmed up to over 200 degrees, and your IPR is a little bit lower than where I'd expect it with your ICP reading... but I don't have RPM, FIPW, MPH, or MFD to tell me what your foot is doing or how the truck is responding to it. My AC160/100s run a low IPR like that at idle... and it's normal.
From what I have so far... I would suspect your ICP sensor is going out, but I wouldn't flash my wallet without more info. Is your truck anemic with no smoke? Your boost suggest nothing is wrong... but it's just a suggestion.
Oh... and opening the file with Office and saving it as a DOC or any other file changes the data. Try to play back the data you sent to me and you will see what I mean.
The attached needs to have the file extension renamed to "CSV" before it will play on AE.

Well, the one I sent you a graph on sometimes takes additional cranking to start when it's hot. I cut grass for a living, and we make about 15-18 stops a day. Additional cranking meaning an extra 3-4 seconds of cranking. The truck I'm most worried about is my dump truck. It took me 3 times in a row of pulling/installing engine before it ran again- but that was before I really tapped into FTE. Now I'm thinking about injector cups, injector orings, etc. I've found out how much I did wrong when I had the engine out and I'm itching to make it right. The AE is an incredible tool. I've had it about 2 months and I feel as if its already paid for itself by giving me done peace of mind. Ok, if I'm trying to track down a potential warm start issue, should I be recording IPR, ICP, FIPW, and RPM's? Would that give enough info to see if any if those is causing a problem? Should the graph be for WOT or on some hot starts? Thanks for asking Rich!

The post above - #443 (my gawd... has this thing stretched that far?) shows the PIDs you want to record... along with the limits if you want to take that much time to set it up and save the settings.
Casual driving doesn't always show what's ailing a truck, but driving it under a good load (like WOT when empty, or a hill when towing) makes the troublemakers pop up like prairie dogs.

I just figured out the other day that even though the graph only shows 4 sensors while you record,that it actually does record all 9 sensors you have running on the live data meter tab. You can select different ones from the 9 when you do the playback. Someone probably mentioned it, but I either missed it or it went right over my head. I just thought I'd mention it in case someone out there is as computer inept as I am. Rich, I'll redo that previous recording with more than the original 4 sensors I had, and try to repost the data. Now that I'm a Supporter!

Thanks for supporting the site that supports us! How do you like the faster load time without all the ads?
I think I mentioned playback limitations vs. record non-limitations, but I can't be sure when this thread just keep rolling - like a 7.3L.
If I want to see more than 4 PIDs on a graph, I use the graphing capability on a spreadsheet.
Really bad idle from a bad injector, two loose ones, and a cracked cup:
