Video - FICM Going....Gone

[Rodslinger]

One of my best friends Marc told me about a year ago when we were BS'ing that I was "masking a problem".
He lives in Cali - I'm in TX. Alot of you know him - Master Diesel Tech - kick azz guy on top.

Damn if it didn't hit me. Friggin ficm wen't crap on me.

The guys at Full Metal Performance came out right away, got me fired up and to the shop.
Joe - thanks YOU being the first Dully to kick my azz!

FICM out....Full Metal Performance - IN. - YouTube

And Josh - thank you for fixing the beast.





Most of Y'all know me, I'm a computer guy - Don't know crap about diesels other mine hauls azz. To see them hook my rig up and WATCH (LEARN) my ficm trying to work.......when the gas was on, it dropped off the screen. And I was back stock.
My rig is back.......damn......now I need tires again.

Thanks FMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ETA - yeah that was Joe kicking my butt, Josh was behind us in his bad azz rig.

Wow that sucks. Glad you up and running again though.

[Rodslinger]

Thanks man - yeah I was dead stick and even when she would run it was like you hear when I got on her. Watching the diagnostic on the computer was awesome. I pulled the tune off, back stock and the ficm just dropped and couldn't keep up - what y'all hear is hot tuned so it damn sure wasn't keeping up.

Mines on the way out too. Mine will only run like that when EOT is below 40 at this point. Gotta get it sent in one of these days

Too bad the Livewire won't read FICMv, you would of caught the problem earlier. Good to hear its back and running strong again. Let's just hope it didn't cause harm to your injectors.

Damn Dave I wish you lived closer. Marc told me - I didn't listen.
As long as I had her plugged in all was fine. I was just loosing power on the road. Yeah I was plugging my rig in the past few weeks when it was in the 60's just because I knew it would run.

When she was warm she was fine, cold - screwed. That video shows me loosing all power. The injectors on the computer were great - the ficm just "ok" until you gave it the pedal and then it dropped off of the screen.
