Nice PICs are used in smaller consumer electronics where size is the key factor. Your cell phone is currently full of them.

AE Screenshots

Not to get you guys off topic or anything, LOL....

Here are a couple of screenshots from my AE session tonight.

The first is a "cold" engine. I grabbed ambient (MAT) as a reference.




What do you think of my MAP and EBP being .6 PSI different? It's been recommended to clean my EBP sensor and tube. It's on my to-do list

This next is a log of starting. It "feels" like it takes a longer time to start (compared to gasser). Note the low voltage I've highlighted.



I have been leaving my BT ODBII adapter connected overnight, but might stop that. I plan tomorrow night to disconnect both batteries, let them sit overnight, then use my DVM to take a reading to make sure they are both holding a charge on their own and balanced.

Then I'll look at parasitic draws.

I have been getting a GP#3 failure code, and occasionally a Cylinder #3 error. I decided to replace both UVCH, to coincide with the turbo wheel and HPx and FRx installs next week.

I don't think that is a source of drain, but guess it depends on the problem

I also did a buzz test, but need to work out how to reduce the size of the video file before uploading.

Compare MAP, BARO & EBP . MAP is probably fine but best to compare them to the BARO

BARO= 14.09 on the previous recording day.

It is here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l#post15247277

With BARO volts * 3.1957 to get PSI.

Does that help?

Well , going off that info it seems that your MAP sensor is the one that is off from the other 2. They are a bit pricey, so to be sure I would compare all 3 sensors on a cold engine (KOEO) .

BARO
MAP
EBP

Also, using AE, check the actual voltage reading for the MAP. With all the quirks of the new versions I feel better looking at the voltage than trusting version 13.crap

From what I see, all is well if you're chipped or tuned. I suspect a DP tune with your idle.

The battery volts are doing exactly as they should because of the glow plugs.

The MAP/BARO/EBP are within reason, but it never hurts to clean the EBP sensor and tube.

HEUI injectors take 1-2 seconds to start, no way around this.

Giotto reports the FIPW low at KOEO, it should read 0.6 with any other scan tool/gauge.

If this is directed at my data, a bit of info. (First off, THANKS! I really appreciate all you guys all do to help others out)

1. Never chipped. Told by OP, "Never"

2. My Ex will step up idle until she is warmed up or I step on the brake pedal. I thought they were all this way? Maybe the EBPV closing for warmup?

3. It was 72F, so I didn't think GPs would be drawing down my voltage?

4. Delay on the HEUI injectors to start the engine...yeah, that makes sense. Remember, this is my first onroad diesel

That's fine, mine did that as well when until the engine oil temp reached 80 degrees, then another step after 125 or so. The Ex's have a lot of extras that can really bog down the alternator. Especially after a long glow plug draw on a cold morning. The higher the idle the better IMO for the stock alternator.

Cold Engine, PreStart Pressures and Stuff

Per request, here is my Cold engine readings before starting. She sat overnight and shivered



That Baro voltage translates to 13.93psi (v*3.1957)

About 1200ft elevation here.

Look interesting?

Yep, EBPV is off from the other two (Baro & MAP). If cleaning doesn't work - order one from Riffraff......

Ok, Thanks! I'll still clean the EBP sensor and tube, but won't get any heartburn if the reading don't change significantly

Preventative and maybe read a bit tighter

My EBP sensor is almost 3 off and I need to replace it, but cleaning everything gained me a bunch even with a bad sensor, My MPG went from 10 to almost 14, and my throttle response improved immensely..Enough to prove the point for me!
