ok I installed it yesterday.
the instal went pretty easy and it took less than an hour.
I havent really played with it yet but had it on level 8 and it was pretty good.
I do have a engine picture light on, but I think that is because of the turbo timer. I set it to on and was looking at the temp turn off and must of set it for a temp of 125 so it idled with the key off for 10 minutes before I figured out what I did.
I dont think I can check that kind of code either as it isnt a hard code.

It also had a little rough idle in park. but maybe I didnt bleed the fuel line good enough?
also, fuel pressure. what should I be reading? Should the number be contstant or could it jump around when at a constant speed? When I was cruisng at 55-60 it was going from 0 to 11 PSI and everywhere in between.

I am going to go play on lunch so I will have more info then.

If CEL light is on/off, you can still check and erase codes.

no its a box. if I had an 06-07 it would be able to read codes since they made those connect to the obdII port

Your CEL will shut off after so many miles or when you start the truck at least 3 times.

Cycle the key, fast 3 times. On the 3rd key on, look in the odometer window. It'll show all the codes set in the ECM. But you got to be fast though. Let me know what the codes are.

I checked all the connections and started it up again.the light is off and I ran it at idle for a while to see if they came back. they didnt. the idle is still a little rough not bad. the fuel pressure is still wacko though. so I bled the line and it still goes from 4psi to 11psi down to 8 then back to 12 then to 0 ect.
