My commander reads about the same as what you are saying yours reads. I have a feeling the commander is reading incorrectly. Everyone else I know with a 7.3L reads about 23-25 psi. My oil reading on the commander also doesn't read correctly. It reads 255 from the instant I start my truck up.

Since I got my original commander, I have had nothing but trouble. The first one I got kept freezing up on me. I begged them to send me one over night so I could use it on an upcoming trip I had planned. The one they sent me has white spots behind the screen, apparently from the glue they used to attach the board to the screen.

I have contacted Rourke Waddel @ Quadzilla numerous times now. He started out being very helpful, but has since stopped returning my emails. I have sent 2 emails in the last 2 weeks with no response on what they can do to get my oil temp to read correctly and fix my screen.

I guess I will have to start sending certified mail to their mailing address to get their attention!

Let me know how you make out.

If you still have reciept for quad take it back and get a refund. Get a good set of mechanical guages and a pillar pod. I too went through these problems except mine was with the bullydog outlook.

Never mind. I read that wrong. You are using the Quadzilla as the monitor for guages. Sorry.

I also got the commander. I did some good research on the different digital monitors. Some things I'm finding from them after I bought it that it do not do what it said it should do. The who thing about live monitoring is not true. If you look the manual it say about reading live data. It cant. I talk to a tech and they say some time in the future. I ask soon? they dont know. Well I bought this by reading you manual and spec on your product. Dont get me wrong I do like the product but it should state that in the future it will do live monitoring of data. I wanted this so i can put mods on and record the difference as I put them on. I guess I cant to that extent.
