The E4OD sucks up a lot of engine and the manual trans i6 has different tuned aspects and I ehar it breathes a lot easier since it doesnt have a lot of roating mass lol

Fuel pressure (in P) was posted in the original post. I fail to see a reason why it would change in gear (other then small changes do to manifold vacuum changes). The truck actually pulls pretty good (especially considering the 3.08 gears) so I can't see the fuel pump having a volume problem. If you don't agree, please let me know.

You got pass codes or just "no" codes?

Have you run the tests again during all this, particularly after doing things that should set codes?

If I understand you correctly (remember I HATE EFI a.k.a. computers), I got pass codes. I think it's code "11".

KOEO & KOER test were run after fixing the things that did set codes.

You will kick yourself for counting flashes.

That's what I have. Counting blinks would only confuse me more.
