Default After 3-4 years my truck finally idles good!!!!

Well i have fought my truck for the last 3-4 years trying to get it to idle decently. I changed everything from o2 sensors (4 times), cams, intakes, cai, mafs, converters, even the damn motor.

I recently swapped in some acdelco o2 sensors and now my truck idles like stock. I tried my hardest the last few days to get it to stall but i could not. Previously i messed with ever idle table and ever damn tutorial and it never really help. Previously i had to crank the desired airflow table up to ~14-15 grams and it was ok. Now with the new sensors i have the idle at 700 and RAF at 9.25 grams. I am extremely happy. I think these new sensors are just alot more sensitive/accurate at idle.

Anyways just thought i would share.

Good to hear! What kind of variance do you have between bank 1 and bank 2 trims at idle?

The most i have seen over the last few days is +/- 2%. The wierd thing is boscha were about the same. By looking at logs of both you really cant tell much difference at idle. Both switched normally. I dunno. But i am extremely happy

How did it idle in open loop?

The 6.0 eats up the cam. Mine idles like stock with very minimal tuning necessary.
