Have a 2012 Avalanche (5.3) that I started scanning tonight to see where the factory tune stands. Trims are off around 5% or so, so they're not too far out of line, only mods are a k&n cold air box.
The curious thing for me was that I happened to log afr and noticed the commanded afr was 12.82 throughout a 20 minute log, so I added the alcohol sensor (Alcohol % SAE) into the pid list just to see what it said too. I was surprised to see that it displayed 33%, since I've never had anything other than 87 - 93 octane, never e85 fuel, for 7K miles on it...
I would have expected to see maybe E10 percentages, but was surprised that it was at 33%. I pretty much use the same gas station all the time, so I'll have to change it up on the next tank and see what happens.
Anyone else ever see values like that in the alcohol percentage on regular gas?
