Short of a real problem, the P1211 code is usually set when a truck with custom tunes is subjected to a hard/aggressive acceleration.

1211 is for the high pressure oil pump. The tune you are using is calling for more injector control pressure then the stock hpop can provide. Only long term solution is to upgrade the oil pump to an aftermarket unit or dual units, or try a tuner that calls for less icp. You may make more power with less icp so it's not necessarily an issue of watering down the tune. Dunno what tuner you're running now either. It's a common code and you can just live with it if you're not having any problems.

I used to get the P1211 with DP-Tunes even with my Adrenaline and currently my T500. I can't speak for others as I don't know, but I don't get P1211 with Gearhead tunes I have now.

You get the P1211 code while you're driving on the stock tune?

What about when driving on a custom tune, like your 80 econo?

Do you have AE? Can you data log?
