Nope, all fixable. We knew something would pop up. Barely had any miles on it before this so there was bound to be something!

So what “broke”?

So what “broke”?

Few electrical gremlins and for some reason it started leaning out

Broke it. Had to go back to get the Ford to fetch it. Huge props to @joesfj40 for all the help.

Not a problem at all brother. Like I said this is family. It’ll get sorted and is definitely a quick fix. Safe travels today and I’ll catch ya soon.

I dropped it back at @Cruisers and Co Friday around 2, (had to take the trailer back), and you want to know if it’s fixed on Sunday morning?

I’m half certain it’s wiring, specifically the bulkhead/canon/Duramate connectors, some signal(s) not getting back to the ECU, or the ECU not able to command injector pulse width (but all 6 simultaneously isn’t likely), or similar.

We know the TPS sensor is there, and the O2 sensor is there (because AFR), I can see them both on the dash. We know it’s going lean, so that suggests it’s not getting increased fuel. Could be a fuel filter, but it’s yuge. Could be bad fuel in Ouray. IDK.

I’m going to recommend a backshell for strain relief as well (on both the Duramate and FCI (ECU) side).

Lime Creek road probably vibrated the truck a bit, but the Duramates were giving a bit of trouble even during the test drive last Sunday.

LOL, no, not wondering if it’s fixed, I was just wanting to know more about what broke. Or what wasn’t working.
Vibration is a real bitch!

Had to look Duramate up. First Google hit:

Yeah, my company is called Netgate and the affiliated company (also mine) is “Electric Sheep Fencing”, (a Phillip K. Dick / Blade Runner reference.)

One day I ran across this (they used to claim a trademark until I wrote a nice letter to them.)

 

[gonzopancho]

Did you miss the Miller automatic waterer? It’s even blue!

The prison phone booths?

Here are the connectors
