    For your viewing pleasure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19ElyzH4h_Y&feature=youtu.be Everyone I talked to that was running a manual behind a VDH equipped engine described that to a T. I only talked to one guy that said he had no surge with a PCS, and looking at the file he was running I...

    You've driven a VDH PCM with a ZF6 behind it? Sounds like the answer is a resounding no.

    I asked everyone I could find, including Bill how to make a VDH pcm stops surging without a trans attached... Only answer came from guys having swapped in ZF6 transmissions who said you ALWAYS have to get the piece of sh*t out of the truck to make it stop surging. They ALL had the same surging...

    Can't control a trans if its life depended on it. Lock the converter.... LOL And the stock calibration intended to control the trans was written by someone with severe duty a-d-d..... I swear the truck could make 600 shifts and 14,000 converter state changes in under a mile, on flat ground...

    Mine wasn't on a restart. You could drive it for 4 years and it would be a total dog as it was the whole time it was at the dealer where I bought it. But.... as soon as I connect the scanner, that pcm changes to another program. Throttle is totally different, trans, just different program...

    I'm reminded of a strange deal with my VDH pcm now that you may have some insight into... When I bought this truck from Texas it came with that VDH pcm in it. The pcm has a white paper label on it talking about voiding warranty and how it's a reman.... so... it's been into by someone...

    Thanks. I figured it would be that straight-forward, but after the 0s file wouldn't crank I gave up and moved on to the ones labeled with numerical values higher than 0. May have been a fluke. I'll flash that file when I get time to mess with the tuning again and verify that the AEB cranks...

    Tuning 101 - Thread Merged with Injector Posts

    I wanted to clarify, I don't think the reason the truck didn't crank was because of anything changed by Bill in the 25T file I did start with (lowest one). I think most likely I did not have enough available pw in my pw map for a cold crank. But I would really like to just build off a totally...

    Can someone send me a bone stock file for AEB? I know what I think the little suffixes and such are on the files that Bill sends with a template, but since the one I thought was stock and NOT a "no start" file for my VDH template wouldn't even crank, it would be awesome if someone who knew for...

    I can't believe not one single solitary soul has posted even a one file... The people trying to make money don't have sh*t anyway, else this thread wouldn't exist, and the people driving around running 200 to 400% nozzles with good files everyday aren't posting. Huh. I guess I'll just post...

    I don't know what part of anything you've contributed or written thus far would have you bow out now. Your contributions to understanding the myriad of PCM codes alone was great. That's the sort of roadblock that has kept people needing files from getting them. Fwiw, your experiences and mine...

    I didn't start this discussion to try and take a ready-made, commercially available product and figure out how to DIY cheaper or easier. I started this thread because every time I have posted about experiences with nozzles of the 200 and larger variety being perfectly tame, and in fact cleaner...

    If you need the truck to be idiot proof for not smoking with a stab, then just set up the map based fueling appropriately. When I was running a standard 250/200 with a 38R and GT47-88 years ago the truck would be blowing the back tires off from a light by the time the back tires made it to...

    In an injector whose biggest flaw is oil inflow rate.... split shots are about as handy as Aids. Just take available inflow rate and subsequent coveted intensifier piston drop speed and throw it away right after you get started for a period of time, then start doing work again. I can tell you...

    Took a long time, but everybody finally came around. I was blown away a few months back when I check this place out and find out people still aren't running decent nozzles because people still don't have ready-made programs for them....

    This was a million years ago and about 5 or 6 computers ago. I actually modeled it to figure out why a hybrid flowed better than an A code with the same nozzle. I had to know how it was possible that a lower hydraulic ratio was producing higher injection pressure. I got my answer... The Flu...

    A buddy of mine and I modeled an entire Heui injector in solidworks back in ~02. We then imported the model into an add on program at the time called Fluidworks or something similar where it would run flow simulations on the model. The ports coming to the poppet were green until right before...

    It would be hard to combine more prick, arrogance and ignorance into a human cocktail if we tried to best your combo man. Cody has a set of injectors that run and sound (what reminded me) like a couple sets I ran with purposefully higher VOP (I believe international might have had higher VOP...

    Anywho........ Back before Tim owned an injector shop I played with VOP a bit for a while and raising the VOP definitely made the injectors much, much crisper and cleaner. The truck sounded very clean and strong as well. I unfortunately lost notable power on the dyno with higher VOP...
