pcm?

Noticed my GPS don't cycle while motor warms. Thinking this is why it runs so rough until normal temperature is reached. Could this be the pcm or a sensor? The plugs and relay are working. Help!

If you are for sure on the GPR & the GP's , it could be a biased EOT sensor ... Or you may be running too heavy oil ....

Also , look for oil leaking from the ICP sensor ( right by the lifting ring on the drivers side head )...

maybe the EBPV?
I didn't think the GP's cycled once it has run it's 1-2 minute course on first ignition.
It may be the oil cooler too but I doubt it....but I don't know,lol

I'm in southwest Arkansas. Can anyone tell me what the little square circuit board with four pins located between fuel filter and the oil reservoir for the HPOP does?

If it is this one you are referring to then it is the "Water In Fuel" electronics ...
