Hi,

The fuel trims are good. Did you not if the voltages changed when you hit the throttle? They are at the outer limits, so I'm curious how they reacted.

I went through the manual again. I attached the diagnostics below that we need to follow. Don't be overwhelmed. Take a look through them and let me know if you are comfortable performing them.

Take care and let me know your thoughts.

Joe

Hello Joe,

I haven't started checking out the list of diagnostic info you sent but let me run something by you and get your opinion. Is it possible for a bad or going bad PCM OR ECM to throw faulty codes? The reason I ask is on this rig you can check your average mpg running through a sequence on the dash. The last time I checked this it was going bonkers. Anywhere from 8 to over 50 mpg. So, I am wondering if the computer is bad?
Thanks,
Greg

Hi,

Yes, the PCM could cause a false code. However, the code diagnostics are usually related to checking the PCM.

Let me know.
