Torque Pro Gauge List?
Is there a list or spreadsheet or anything out there containing all the "need to know" gauges on TP for the 6.0?
I know that TP has a fair amount of Ford specific gauges but are they accurate or do the gauges need adjusted to give us useful information?
I've been looking around this morning but I can't find much more than pictures of the gauge setups that people have. I am looking at getting into a 6.0 so I have been trying to get prepared for looking at trucks.
Thanks in advance, and happy fathers day!

Thanks Dan,
I have been perusing through Tech folder information as far as gauges and what to be looking for. I have been looking/lusting after a nice KR for a while now.....
The links for the Torque Pro are good, I had been through the first thread before, but hadn't seen the second one. It sounds like most of the gauges for the 6.0 work coming from the extended PID list. Is that correct?
Thanks again!

As well (tho I didn't come up with it)I know that Trans Temp we use to have to go edit the PID on and change the ODB Header to TCM, or it would actually be Coolant Temp (for some reason). I used Trans Fluid Temp (Method 2) -- so don't know if there is a better one to choose from by now...
Hey Torr: Post up a pic of your main screen from way back -- that was awesome!

OK, if that is really up at temp, you should start watching the coolant and it really should be stable over 190, or it is time for a new thermostat...
Well heck, Torr, you did ask...
