    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    it breaths through a 5" with a lightly oiled K&N. Replaced the MAFS cause i didn't know how to test it and have been told it was a good idea. Pressure acts like it should normally when i step on it, just when it falls on its face it obviously drops. And the hardest part is that its not...

    The White devil

    I only understand about 10% of the things said here, just wanted to say its awesome to see you having a positive attitude about it with all this BS going on. I would not be reacting quite so well. Best of luck getting that thing ripping

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    I don't have a V2, i did just get a scanner that tells me my rail pressure, but it doesn't tell me whats call for just current. I don't know how to make that helpful because what it is doing is acting like i let off the throttle so obviously it drops when i do that but it doesn't tell me what...

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    would it being a rail issue as stated effect my egt? and would it contribute to over heating cause it would be essentially running lean?

    I don't, i thought about adding that just for the diagnostic ability, my wife is reluctant to let me spend money after paying 19k for it....lol

    I don't, I'll have to pay a mechanic to "diagnose" but if it's what i gotta do then so be it.

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    The tuning was done after i got it by sss diesel, and i am fully convinced he sucks, when i went i didn't even know basics and took his word, but since have researched a lot. According to him, he can't change shift points or defuel with efi live, so either he lied to me or he doesn't really...

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    I ended up turning the tune down to the stock tune to see if it was just doing it cause of the tune and it didn't seem to help that matter at all. And i wish it wasn't lifted so high with such big tires, but i got a stellar deal on it so i settled. I live in provo area, work in park city...

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    I was leaning towards that just from random google searches and forum searching. Then these other problems with the egts and trying to overheat with what should be a light load for a diesel made me wonder if its something else and its all connected or if i have a few completely separate problems.

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    No light whatsoever. it doesn't smoke or anything when it falls, it literally acts like i just stopped pushing the throttle.

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    Sorry, didn't mention EGr is blocked. also, on the stock tune the turbo holds 24 psi WOT but when i change my switch even sticking at WOT it varies between 20 and 26 but never higher. i thought with a tune he could get more out of it. Sounds like i can't really look into anything...

    i don't have a screen and haven't been able to take it to anyone to check rail pressure. How would i test the MAFS?

    Falling on face, overheating, high egt

    I am brand new to this forum, and to diesels for that matter. So sorry ahead of time if i sound stupid. I have an 07 LBZ i bought a month ago and i don't know where to start, i searched the forums and couldn't find what i have going on. To start, it has intake, exhaust, lift on 37s, and EFI...
