[Gmecm] 749 ECM

Tue Mar 13 05:29:27 UTC 2007

I don't know where the injector constant is on a 4.3 Turbo $58 file, I 
remember it has something to do with the
EGR...  BPC vs EGR?

The two tables I'm referring to are the VE Table - in idle
and VE Table - not in idle.

Since you say you are idling for 3 minutes before it dies, it would indicate 
to me that it's too rich, but when it goes
into close loop it does something bad.

You need to scan it to see what it's doing..  The VE Table, - in idle goes 
from 20 kpa to 100 kpa and from 600 RPM's to 1600.
The 600 rpm and 20 kpa setting is 28.08.  If it's idling at 50 kpa due to 
your cam and 600 rpm's, the be at 50kpa is set at 36.66
You need to reduce this number to match up with what fuel it needs, smooth 
the map....  Run it on as many cells as possible and keep
going until the corrections are very small, try to keep it pulling out about 
5% fuel.
