Honestly though that looks great. I’m currently less than a year on turbo rebuild with the ww2 so gotta take a pass.

Until next year when I get the Hydra I’m going to stick with the Wastegate. Can’t have my wife tripping when towing the trailer every time I‘m tripping the cel. Got some more testing to do though. Gonna crank it down until It de-fuels then back it off a tick.

Now I have to burn up 1/2 tank of fuel so I can do the hutch and harpoon. Lead foot testing should help expedite this significantly.

Thanks for all the help and info. You guys here at FTE are Awesome.
Agree with that!. This forum has been an amazing resource. Sure has been fun to follow your work on this rig. I'm in the process of doing the Hutch/Harpoon mod as well. It will be interesting to see what you find.

Got my dongle yesterday but had to deal with the yard work so I didn’t get a chance to scan it last night.
Went with Forscan on windows 10 and USB. Ran the scan this morning but only KOEO so far since my wife was still sleeping and didn’t want the dogs freaking out ( yay we’re going for a truck ride ) and waking her. Happy Spouse = Happy House.

I will get a KOER this evening.

Before I cleared.

What came up after I cleared.

Here’s the Perdels and ICP and IPR.

How do they look. I have no idea what they should be.

That was a wot for the readings.

Perdels at idle no ac but just realized in park. Ooof

That's a healthy ICP and IPR at WOT. What RPM were you running when you snapped that shot?

Your EBP and MAP seem far apart at WOT. You are running a WW2 and the hypertech tuner, right?

What are the EBP and MAP readings with the truck off (KOEO)? They should be pretty close.

Your perdel's are fine.

Didn’t check those koeo.

1- not sure what the rpm was, lots going on and too much to watch. Next time I’ll have the rpm on forscan as well.

2- Yes to both, WW2 and the hypertech. Went back and looked at the video clip. Another snap from the clip below. I’m assuming right before defuelling based on the MAP.

3- At some point this weekend I will get that too.

4- Thanks, from what I’ve read lurking the threads that seemed reasonable to me. #8 seemed a little high but that could be due to in park not drive? Mostly due to the AD over AE or whatever it is called. Different injector in #8.

this all seems pretty healthy to me from what I’ve read to date.
The only thing that concerns me is the fipw at idle.
Thought I read somewhere that it shouldn’t be more than 1 - 1.5 at idle, but maybe that was for different injectors.

Went with the Rotella t6 5-40 today. $246.00 at MR Lube.

I’ve got everything collected for the hutch/ harpoon but run out of time before my trip next weekend. 450km to our property up in 100mile house. Looking forward to hooking up the trailer and seeing how it pulls now. Got some good climbs along the way.




KOEO map and ebp

Hot idle with fipw

RPM included this time on WOT.

After 5 hours behind the wheel towing the trailer I have some results to report.

The 6637 is somewhat obnoxious in sound until about 1700 when the WW2 overpowers it with its whine. Not sure why but the brand new filter with the minder is already at 50%.

Wasnt hard to hit 25 on the boost with the trailer on the back. Some long hills and was driving them on EGT gauge with tons of pedal left.

Finally at our property.

Ran without the redline but not by choice.

6637 with 500 km on it.

Pulled some DTC today.

P0238
P1249
P0478

going to assume these are all related to the wastegate disconnected. Had just tightened it up two turns and was reinstalling the redline with a zip tie for good measures when the stub snapped off the wastegate due to rust.

P0238
Condition Description: Turbo boost sensor A circuit low high.
Probable Causese: Circuit short to power, MAP Sensor.

P1249
Condition Description: Waste gate steady state failure
Probable Cause: GND short, plugged hose/port, solenoid, actuator.

P0478
Condition Description: Exhaust pressure control valve high input.
Probabale Cause: Plugged sensor line, stuck butterfly, restricted exhaust.

For P0238 and P1249, monitor the MAP PID and see if it changes reading while driving. It should even if your wastegate pressure line is disconnected. If it doesn't, check for chafed/broken wires leading up to the pigtail.

For P0478, it means your EBP sensor and tube need cleaning/replacement.

Could the first 2 be from overboosting? Over MAP sensor range
And the last one from the deleted EBPV?

the 1249 for sure. That is the cel for about 3 minutes then goes away leaving the code. Seen that a few times in the last couple of weeks since doing all the work.

First I’ve seen these other two though, but was pulling hard through the Fraser Canyon. Some pretty steep grades, and long hills. Don’t like that light on steady though. Kinda unsettling this far from home. It did go off with just a key cycle though.

I had FORScan running and have saved the logs. Kept them short in length, 1.5 hrs, so it would be easier to go back and look at each one. Thanks for the tip, BWST I think.

If you've saved the CSV version of the logs, it should be a straightforward paste into the PID charting tool for Forscan files, to review specific PIDs. Forscan itself is pretty good at graphing too, if there aren't too many PIDs to start with (6 or less). More than that, and I think Forscan charts get a bit busy and hard to read.

Going to get a good look at what was happening once I get home. Here for the week and no power besides the morning when we fire up the gennie for coffee maker. Pretty much killed the tablet on the way up, and just charging for 1/2 hour each morning, hopefully enough steam in her to monitor the trip home as well.

I did save in the right format for your excel program so will be able to use it.

So the red line end not connected to the actuator, you did relocate it under a CAC boot clamp and tightened it down right? Otherwise you would be bleeding boost out of it contributing to higher EGTs
