AE does the same thing - change the multiplier, and the max is a mess. Any time you change a multiplier on a gauge, you have to visit the scale on the gauge.

Has anyone compared MFD between Torque and AE? I'm seeing 155mg/stroke in Torque and 10.1g in AE.

A little off topic, but while trouble shooting a rough idle, I was schooled by a Ford tech. AE showed no failures in CCT, but reported my missing IAH. According to the tech, the presence of the AIH code ends the CCT before any weak cylinders appear. His workaround was to watch MFD while canceling 1 injector at a time and noting a rise in MFD. Sure enough, he canceled #7 and no change in MFD. #7 was only showing 1.7% perdel.

I have never confirmed the math on MFD the way I have on other PIDs. I've tinkered with it a few times, but I never finished my work.

That "off-topic" input is really quite on-topic. We use these devices to troubleshoot our trucks, and you're saying a simple Torque Pro can do a better job of troubleshooting a bad stick than you can with the fancy features of AE and the like.

I have a partial miss in one injector - that's tough to spot. I will say that I've seen rough idle with PerDels near 2, and it was a bad injector.

So I finally got toque pro set up and have a few issues.
My boost reads -2 ish at idle. Is that normal? EOT reads in Celsius no matter what I try. And the accelerator petal position does not read anything. Also the list of PID's that can be edited is not as long as the list that can be displayed. I'm new to this and not real tech savvy so forgive my ignorance if that's the case.
My MFD seems to be right on though.
One more, how accurate do you guys think the HP reading is?

I don't know about the throttle, or HP pigs, but my boost reads 0 to -1.8 at idle. Ebp -baro does the same. What is your MFD at warm idle?

It lingers right around 8 warm and around 14 cold if memory serves me. I haven't saved anything yet.

You don't have any boost at idle, your turbo doesn't even come into play until you get your RPM's up to at least 1500....

What is the equation for the MFD PID?

Yeah I get that, I was just wondering why it's a negative number.

The equation is the preloaded one. I did need to change it to mg.
PID 221412
Mass fuel desired
MFUEL
0.0
100.0
X1
MG/stroke
((A*256)+B)*0.0625
Auto

Celsius and other settings...

Tap the gear on the main page, Settings, Units.

Go through those settings to get English units instead of Metric


Also under settings, scroll down to "Manage extra PIDs/Sensors"
Tap the 3 vertical dots in the upper right, "Add predefined set", choose "Ford(Incl Powerstroke)"

This adds more Ford PIDs.

Tip: Remember to use the back arrow to get to the main screen, hit the gear, and tap "Quit" when finished running TorquePro. Otherwise it doesn't close out properly.

Hope this helps!

At idle you have a negative boost because the motor is sucking more air then the turbo is providing, therefore creating a vacuum for the MAP.

Yes sir, I did all of those. Can I delete the PID and then reload the ford powerstroke? The weird thing is the Trans temp is good.

I'm looking at my pids now. In units, I have Celsius unchecked and my EOT is:
Pid 221310
Unit C
Max/min 300/0
Equation (((A*256)+B)/100)-40

My Trans temp is:
Pid 221674
Unit F max/min 100.0/0.0
Equation ((A*256)+B)/8

Both read as Fahrenheit and I just noticed the min/max on my Trans doesn't make sense, but it reads accurately. Weird!

Try quitting the program, opening it again, and make sure you CONNECT to your truck. It doesn't always update the units until it gets new data from a connected vehicle.

Does that help?

(My EOT is in *F, no problem)
