Practically no power until 180 degrees
My truck has to be completely warmed up to at least 180 degrees before I can take off down the road, it feels as if the truck is not creating boost. it just revs with little acceleration. Once the truck is completely warmed up it accelerates great.
I originally believed it to be stiction, but I would say this seems worse than stiction. FICM voltage is good. SGII says it is boosting about 6-9 psi when truck is barely accelerating.

I did have the injector o rings replaced a few months ago and it ran about the same. It did have fuel in oil before I changed them, have not seen any signs of fuel in oil since.
I will download the x gauges for those readings today. The temps seem to be reading accurately. I have swapped and replaced temp sensors in the past, although I do tend to have high deltas.

This description sounds like a transmission slip....or not shifting?
