Sorry, I didn't seen no-start in your programs.

No-start & stock are the boring ones...

EDIT: Come to think of it, I don't remember trying the no-start setting. I'll go out today and see if it's actually there.

So far initial indications from the lie-o-meter are saying that, but I have a whole new tank of diesel to try before I will say yes. I will say that I see 18.0 on my overhead console from 50/50 driving so far. I'm sure it will average down, but my recent average before chip was 13-13.8 on winter blend, so anything up from that is better. I'll repost when I polish of this tank, but it will be a bit.

DANG IT!! I tinkered with the tuner today, and it *doesn't* have no-start in it... That certainly explains things. I'll drop Diane/Jody an email later.

Reps to maevens for making me think.

Jody does not include Nostart unless you ask for it. I found this out the day after I installed mine. A quick call to Jody and he told me that. my position 0 is also a stock setting.

That's just it -- I *DID* ask for it. I need to send it back to get reprogrammed for the shift kit anyway, and I'll have them add lopey, tow, and smoke while it's there.

I believe it will start in the NO START but will quit very soon after running.

On my list to do. It will be a bit until I finish the tank, but I'll repost when I get the results. So far it looks promising though. By the way, thanks for all your guys help in reading your tips and stuff for installs. I'll post some pics tomorrow of my install wiring for my pyrometer and tranny temp. Ran them different than Dieselmanor directions said to and it looks in my opinion a lot cleaner.

So it's more power with at least as good of mileage. Sounds good to me. In 80e do you get a stronger accelleration at the same rpm's as in stock?
