Yeah... It's always hard because we get absolutely slammed, particularly through spring and early summer, and there just aren't enough hours in the day to accomplish everything. Ya know? I have always enjoyed the debates, educational threads, and just chit-chatting with everyone. I know Jay and...

One other issue that FICM tuning addresses is the ability to adjust the SOI limitations, injection ramp rates, inductive heating, and other functions and limiters not available through the ECM. Plus it allows for ECM tuning that doesn't require the spoofing of the ICP transfer function or...

:rockon: :blitzed: Very glad to hear that the bulk of the problems are cleared up. If you should have any further issues, please don't hesitate to give us a shout. Have a great weekend. :D

:jawdrop: You're killing me, Charlie! :D :rockon: LOL

Man, wouldn't it be awesome to somehow trick the instrument cluster into thinking the TFT was voltage?

The problem with 2002/2003 7.3L when converting is that the IC gets several values from the PCM through the SCP bus. Since a M/T truck doesn't use a TFT sensor, the instrument cluster would not have that gauge and the firmware wouldn't look for a temp reading. The only suggestion would really be...

This is our Excursion at the moment... [click to enlarge] [click to enlarge]

Most diagnostic scanners will provide Mass Fuel Desired (MFD), Injection Control Pressure (ICP), Injection Pressure Regulator (IPR) Duty Cycle, and Injection Pulsewidth (Inj PW). These, combined with Accelerator Pedal (APP) and RPM, can help to provide a really clear picture of what's going on...

Yeah, that's the direction we're heading now. State Farm has been really helpful in trying to get this claim processed. We have a few hoops to jump through, but I think it's going to get handled pretty quickly. Thank goodness we documented EVERYTHING! Otherwise it might have been considerably...

Full Force sends 6 basic tunes that match the injectors. If you need more than that, you are welcome to purchase additional custom tunes through them, or through your tuner of choice.

Yeah, that would be super for those questionable stations. Even just a couple gallons to make sure the fuel is okay. Would have saved me a ton of heartache. Gotta pick one up for sure. Thanks for that recommendation. :D

Exit 51. This fabulous facility right here... https://www.google.com/maps/place/Newnan,+GA/@33.4450042,-84.695071,82m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x88f4c62a4dc53ab9:0xf4ea9dda60240ecb!6m1!1e1

You have to consider, it's not the fuel that's the problem, it's the station selling it. How often do they check for contamination? How often do they change their filters? What's the turnover rate in the tanks? All considerable factors in getting a bad load of fuel. Now, here's an interesting...

SMH - Shaking My Head...

The fuel came from Circle K/Shell on the North side of I-85 at the Newnan exit. Circle K refused to accept responsibility for the damage caused since the fuel was actually provided by Shell. We've been going around in circles with Shell about this, but they won't do anything unless someone else...

There are arguments both ways for using a T4 flange mount versus the standard Ford V-band flange. My personal preference is to use the V-band as much as possible because if the turbo ever fails on you, you can pick a replacement up from any number of distributors... Usually the same day. Also...

This year has been a tough one for our family. It's been full of those "that stuff happens to someone else..." moments. A couple weeks ago, we had another lovely one. Took the Excursion and our 28' trailer down to Newnan, GA to go pick up some cabinets and marble countertops. Get off I-85 and...

Full Force, FTW. Can't even begin to express how happy we've been with their quality and service over the years.

What are the tunes you're using? We'd be happy to take a look at what you've got and see if there are any updates available. Some of the less common tunes may not be updated as frequently as others, especially if we don't hear of any complaints from anyone. Also, if there is a recommended...
