Hello,
I have developed a mis and I was using Vehicle controls and special features / fuel cut out per cylinder to isolate which cylinder might be missing. I get to cylinder 8 and its dead. No change in idle at all. The problem and my question is this. I use brake kleen on the header tubes to verify my findings and #8 is as hot as the rest, But #1 is almost ice cold. So #1 has got to be the cylinder with the mis. "right"? I double check the cutout test and #1 has a strong change in idle and #8 has no change at all.
My question is this: I am running a 2012 54x 5.3 block. and a 2003 p59 ecu, I have a ligenfelter 24x converter box hooked up and the motor was running great. All was good. Would the Lingenfelter box confuse the cutout test? If so wouldn't the firing order be all messed up?
Next question is do I have to do a crank relearn everytime I disconnect the battery? If so would that be the confusion to the cutout test?
Any help would be appreciated.
