Can anyone give me step by step instructions to disable gm's active fuel management. I have a Predator U7194 and the trucks already got the 87 octane tune.

 

Thanks

I can't give Step by Step because I sold mine and I don't remember exactly but I can tell you that you need to hook it up to the truck

go to where you installed the 87 tune

click on the 87 then click on the MODIFY tune

from there you will have several selections to scroll through

find the one that says DOD ( I think its DOD can't remember 100%)

then when you get to the DOD you hit disable or turn off (again can't remember exactly)

then back out and hit install modified tune or something similar to that

 

I know you asked for step by step but that is the best I can remember at this moment

If that doesn't help and no one else chimes in you might try looking on the Diablo Predator Website forums. It may take some searching and browsing but I'm sure its there someone.

Good Luck

If you somehow screwed it up. You can always put the stock tune back in the truck and then start over with the 87 octane tune. Just go to modify the tune and find the DOD and turn it off then let it install the tune again. And you should be good to go.

I found this on the Predator site for a little bit better instructions

 

 

d hook the predator up to your car, select the same tune you installed before - either the diablo tune or the 87 octane tune, then this time, you select Modify Tune instead of install tune...

 

then scroll down to DOD, and select to turn it off/disable it.. press the center button to save your selection... then press the ESC button a few times to back out of the menus and it will ask you "Install Tune now?" - answer/select YES, and it will reinstall the tune with the change made to it...

 

also once you get that taken care of you might want to run a log and adjust the injector slope

here is a link to the instructions on how to do it and what to change

Hey does anybody know how to get rid of the throttle hesitation with the predator. Can i do it by changing the TM settings or changing the shift points? And by hesitation i mean the time between when i step on it and the RPM to rev up to 2000 before the truck accelerates. When the truck accelerates it goes like hell but i hate the lag.

can't do it with the predator user-adjustments yourself... but you can get a custom tune done for your truck by a diablosport CMR custom tuner (like myself) that will take care of that and also get a lot of other things tweaked to give you even quicker throttle response, acceleration, stronger/harder pull, better mileage (if you can keep your foot out of it! haha)... etc etc...

 

let me know if you're interested and I can getcha hooked up...

 

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!!!

Does that mean there is now Torque Managment available for the predator if it's possible with a custom tune?

tranny TM no... there is TM on the engine side of the tune that is removed... and there is a table on the engine side of the tune that can be tweaked that does affect shifting and improves it quite a bit... but there it no direct tranny/tcm support yet...

 

I was mainly referring to his comments about the throttle lag....

I am too.

I am getting my diabloSport tuner this week and thats the main reason I want one is for the throttle response and to turn off the speed limiter.

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
