Default help... cant figure this out?

Truck has been running strong but real rich.. around 10.7 afr.. So I requested a retune. Nelson sent new ecm and i put itin this afternoon and installed it.. made a few wot runs And its around 13.0!! So I said hmm that's off. So installed old pcm And went for a ride. Made a few wot runs And its the same thing!! 13.1 or so??? Any ideas? Does it need time to adjust wot settings?

it may need a little while for the computer to set in, but if it doesn't get any richer then 13.0 then maybe your pump is getting weak.

If you can hook up a fuel pressure gauge and during a wot run monitor fuel pressure

You may want to clean the MAF Sensor. Sound like it might be dirty.

well, the gauge shows 65 psi at wot, so i know the pump is good. I just cleaned MAF a little while ago and its still staying in the 13's afr ? And now my temp gauge in my dash quit working too i guess... it gets better and better.

pull the sensor from the exhaust and hook it back up, then turn the key on and see if its still in calibration

Default Low rpm misfire

I recently installed a new 4l80e transmission and 3000 torque converter and i have a low rpm misfire at idle and when I’m driving the truck won’t stop misfiring until I hit 3,000 rpm , im really confused on what’s going on, any input would be appreciated, it’s a 04’ 5.3 ls with bolt ons and was tuned already before torque converter was installed

No you do not have to wait for it to adjust for WOT. That whole computer learn thing is way overblown, it is typically set in a few minutes, not days or weeks like the internet makes you think and only at part throttle.

What is your ECT in the scanner? If you lost the sensor, that could explain your fueling issue.
