I would get rid of those programmers before you run into more problems...

I agree, I can't believe you haven't had worse issues stacking two of those things up. I'm not sure they can even stack like you're trying to do, you might be loading one up, then writing over it with the other. Get rid of both of them. Put the truck back to stock and try your testing again.

well as stock the truck is a dog, and when i programmed the system i did it with the superchips, without the power puck even plugged up so i didnt have to worry about it programming with it plugged in.

so if yall are wanting me to remove the chips how should i go about getting more power?

and if i was to only keep one of those things plugged up or programmed, which one should i pick, i do alot of long distance traveling so i wanted to get something to help with gas mileage, and the superchips has a mileage xs tuning that i would assume would help with my gas mileage....

but now that ive been driving it the past couple days it seems to have more vibration in the steering wheel when im going down the road, and seems to me that i have to push the throttle down more.

this thing is turning into a nightmare, but it could just be me haha

Do it the right and safe way for a 6.0 and get a sct for more power... Do not use any of the ones you have!!!

For now, just remove them to test. If the truck runs fine without them, then I think you found your problem. That or it's just not a problem stock, but with the added need for fuel and timing, it's making a small problem really big with the programmers.

I'd get rid of both of them anyways, even if you get this figured out and it's not them. SCT with custom tunes. You can get mileage tunes, though I wouldn't recommend them. The highest mileage tunes are the hot race tunes with a converter lock up. Just need to keep your foot out of it to get the mileage.

Just return the truck to stock for now to try to eliminate any issues here.

the power puck goes to the map sensor and the valve cover on the passenger side, and the super chips plugs under the dash, but i can remove the superchip one after i program it, but the power puck stays on all the time, thats how i stacked them.. it worked fine for 3000 miles.

but for instance,
today i started my truck at work. ran like ****, ran really rough and felt like it had a misfire, so i put it in reverse, and on its own it creeped backwards, so i went to give it gas and i got nothing, it was like i didnt even have a throttle on the truck, so then i put it in drive and got the same results. so i rolled back to my parking spot and put it in neutral and let it run a second, then i went to give it gas and it slowly revved up.

so then i backed up and headed out of the parking lot and it was barely creeping,

i get on the road to give it gas and it went, but barely. slow enough i had to put my hazards on, but as i held the throttle down the rpms slowly went up but the truck was still creeping. so finally i started to get some speed and while it was changing gears it was jerking hard when the gear engaged.


so i got home and checked the fcim like someone posted on here, and it read all the right voltage.... so i was lost. i decided to change the fuel injector module thing right by the fender, and it did nothing. i checked my injecters and all are plugged in and everything but it keeps randomly showing codes for injector 1 contribution, then sometimes it will show injector 1 and 3 contribution, then sometimes it will show both of them and p0603. one time it showed injector fault c (i think thats what it was)


i may have made a mistake though, because a couple weeks ago when i was having issues before i put the new fuel pump on, i got the computer reflashed and i forgot to remove the power puck and to set my programmer to the stock setting? will this impact the reflash?


but as of now i have no mods on the truck, i took the puck off, and i programmed the truck back to stock. the only thing on there is the fuel pressure regulator upgrade and my egr delete kit(but i have the valve still in the hole plugged up(some guy told me to do so so i didnt have a bare clip)

im still having issues.

i want to take it too ford and just say fix it but i really want to do this myself and i want to save thousands of dollars haha.

IF anyone has any ideas or even things that they think might work let me know, you can reply back to me on here, email me, or even text or call me 8168054138 this is my only way of transportation and i dont want this to affect my job.

id greatly appreciate it.

and i forgot to mention sometimes it will seem to run just perfectly, like it seems to me that all these problems are random but reoccuring.

sometimes it will run real rough and still drive, and sometimes it will run rough and not go anywhere.

i just took it down the road, seemed to be running decent but you can still hear how its not perfect, and when i got home i left it in the drive way running for about 20 minutes, then i went back out there and took it for a spin around the block, when i got back and parked the truck i smelled diesel. not too strong though.

When you get this figured out please post it or email me the answer. The last week I've had the same issues but my truck is stock. As i type this I'm sitting on the side of the road broke down. In about 10 minutes I'll be able to start the truck and hopefully make it home. I replaced my filters 2 days ago but used wix filters
