Bubble test is a quicker version. Just pull the upper fuel filter and crank with the wire by the fender and see if you get bubbles. If so, and you can't tell which side they're coming from, do the balloon method to determine which head the bubbles are coming from, then pull glow plugs to identity the problem cylinder.
No bubbles in bubble test. That means? no air in fuel ? and not what he was describing above?
Sorry for all of the updates. Just ran my truck for 30 consecutive minutes for the first time since all of this started without issues except when, while driving not in park, after quick RPM reduction a sucking/gasping sound under the hood. The only thing I did was give it about a 18hr 6amp battery charge.....I'm terrible at trouble shooting so I cant explain or understand.
Ok that's all good for dtc's. Get into dashboard and set up your pids.
As Bismic said you need:
Ficm v/m/l
Icp. Preasure/duty/volts.
Rpm crank
You know the drill.
You need to set up your Dash. You will then me able to monitor and Diagnose.
Forscan screen. Torque Pro screen.
I went out and fired mine up to give an idea what you will see. Torque is a little easier to set up but forscan grows on ya the more you use it.
I run Torque for my everyday monitoring. That's just my preference. When it comes to detailed diagnostics I'm all Forscan.
I'll have to get on my laptop to view them csv.files. my super phone won't see them. But I'll look at them.
I'm glad you got it started. Now you can diagnose a little easier.
