Hey guys, Little back story.
this is a fleet vehicle, that we service. we picked it up from another shop that they had brought it to. it had shut down so they sent it to the nearest shop due to them being out of town
long story short, the other company ran a relative compression test and failed the engine. truck would not run originally, but was secondary to bad fuel.
we got the truck in, and found several major problems and fixed them. however now the truck wont idle when hot but will idle cold. unless we created a vacuum leak. both upstream 02 sensors are reading rich, and its coding injector stuck rich on b1 s1 and b2 s1 until we create a vacuum leak than it leans up and starts switching correctly. the engine is a little low on compression on cylinder #8 120 out of the 135 compared to the rest of the engine. there is not a MAF on this unit as well.. i have not been able to find adaptive fuel trim reset on the ids tool for this truck. we did however reset the Keep alive memory, attempting to force it to learn how to idle and adjust fuel trims again
bad fuel (drained and refilled) water logged
bad plugs (189k Original plugs)
one bad coil pack
dead injection control wire on #8
found that the exhaust was restricted due to failed catalytics convters
Is the engine coolant temp sensor functioning, properly?
