well i suggest you write to the editors of the magazine that usually deal direct with the programmers and engineers themselves, before they write articles. i would also assume that info came from the company that provided the new programming for their build. i came to look for info and to attempt to help someone else out. didnt know id have the moderator lead a stoning.. good job on attracting new members btw, i will be sure to upgrade my membership now.

since everyone else is clearly experts i will refrain from trying to help anyone else, and will also discontinue my reading since its aparently not a good way to learn. lastly i will point out that myself, and the article, were mentioning the difference in timing advance at idle, and might also explian why they say, " allowed the new, single-shot injectors to work problem-free both at idle, and on the throttle" , implying that the timing changes from one to the next.

so unless your claiming that the timing is dymanic while at a constant rpm (idle), i still see nothing wrong with this info.

While the help is appriciated posting in a nearly year old thread is, IMO, a waste of time because most people have either figured out the problem, found the info they were after or got tired of the issue and sold the truck. (I found out mine was a federal truck and a complete POS due to the PO and sold the truck after it gave up on me and I was tired of dumping $$ into it)

CSIPSD is a good guy and a heap of info but he is a little rough around the edges and is pretty blunt but so what? You learn to deal to deal with it.

You get contradicted and get all butt hurt - that's not going to help you or anyone else, just let it roll off your back and move on.

and btw 11 - 1 is not 7 .. so maybe you should back off seeing as how you dont even know where the sensors on you fuel bowl are..

gotta love the forums where the moderator leads an attack on the new members.. so if your all going to join in, make sure you all know your info.

as i agree with some of what you say, i however do not agree about bringing back older posts. i thought the point of the site holding onto them in the first place, was so that people have a data base to search when they do need info, which is how this turned up to begin with. just because the info that myself, or anyone else , doesnt happen to be on the first 3 pages, doesnt mean i should start a new post instead of building off of an existing one. most times when people do that, guys jump in and complain about the OP not searching.
regardless of how much info someone may or may not know, theres no reason to have a power trip about it, as i have already reminded one of the guys they may not know just as much as they think they do in another thread.

These are discussion boards, if you are not willing to accept criticism don't post.
If you had accepted the fact either your wording was wrong or your idea or concept was wrong. Get over it. I've been working on diesel trucks for atleast 7 years now and as any technician will tell you , everyday is a learning curve and you make mistakes. You may misunderstand a computers operation or you might not understand how something comes apart. The reality is a good technician or even diyer must be able to learn from every situation and accept correction. Take it as a lesson learned but don't act like a child about it

again - a discussion forum.. great how you jump on the bandwagon directing you comments to one person, but the 4 other guys that play "follow the leader" are right in doing so in your eyes. and btw im not the one acting like a child but im not about to bow down and just absord sarcasim. this is my last post here, and i will rethink becoming a paid memeber.

as i agree with some of what you say, i however do not agree about bringing back older posts. Well that's the great thing - it was my opinion and you're as entitled to yours as much as I am mine.i thought the point of the site holding onto them in the first place, was so that people have a data base to search when they do need info, which is how this turned up to begin with. So you were looking for info on Cali trucks and found some and posted something that you belived would benifit the OP (me) and others - great, but then when others contadict you you get butt hurt and defensive just because the info that myself, or anyone else , doesnt happen to be on the first 3 pages, doesnt mean i should start a new post instead of building off of an existing one. most times when people do that, guys jump in and complain about the OP not searching.
regardless of how much info someone may or may not know, theres no reason to have a power trip about it, as i have already reminded one of the guys they may not know just as much as they think they do in another thread.But you're quick to point out how you reminded someone that they don't know everything.
Just some things to think about.
