Edit: Truck is a 1999 GMC Sierra with a 2002 Silverado 5.3l engine with a BTR Stage 2 Cam (212/218, .553, 113+2).
Hey folks, I first started trying to get a 0411 PCM tune for my truck but I couldn't figure that out so I am working with a Frankenstein build from a 1999 GMC Sierra PCM. Today I tried tuning for the VE table and hopefully got into speed density mode correctly and changed the tables correctly to get data from my LTFT's. I also moved my high octane table into the low octane table as a MAF failure uses the low octane table.
I reset fuel trims and started my drive whilst the truck was warm to start with and everything was going great. About 15 minutes in I had some weird knock issue and was getting zero power since the knock retard smashed my timing into the ground. Then I got food and restarted the testing but this time I restored the low octane table with the factory setting in hopes of getting better data or less knock retard. However, it seemed worse! I personally didn't hear knock or pinging other than the strange noise of -10 degrees of timing...
Now I didn't do tons of different driving like high RPM, or high load mostly regular driving to start with. There was one spot near the end of my second log where I dropped it from 4th TCC locked to 3rd and then 2nd and neither spots had knock which was strange. I was only getting knock retard on low throttle light load acceleration (normal driving.) The other strange thing is my LTFTs had nearly the same result of -13% to -16% of fuel pulled. I was expecting at least some added fuel when I had the truck in 3rd and 2nd near 4k-5k rpm.
I'm curious to know if I set up something wrong or if there is something you guys can see for me. I will post my current tune(With factory high+low octane spark tables), log 1, and log 2.
I apologize for strange file names. The build names are accurate. Build 7 is SD mode with high and low octane tables matched. Build 7.1 is SD mode with factory high and low octane tables. The Build 7 log had a good amount of 45-60 mph driving and a little bit of 75 mph highway driving. Build 7.1 log had mostly 45-60 mph driving, and this is the worse log with a huge amount of knock retard.
