Anybody know what open loop fault Misfire could be?

2007 silverado 4.8l 1500 new body style wt.

 

So I have a problem where at idle my fuel pressure goes up from the factory spec 43psi in to 59psi and my engine starts misfiring and a p0300 stores.

 

At this time using my live data scanner I see that I'm in open loop fault on both fuel system 1 and 2 and also both my upstream oxygen sensors start reading high voltage and fuel pressure is up to 59psi which is out of spec. To get the engine to come back down in fuel pressure back to 43psi spec, I simply rev the engine a couple seconds and it jumps back down and no misfire blinking anymore. I manually checked the fuel pressure and it's accurate to my scanner as well as did key on engine off and leakdown and it passed. Fuel trims are at 0 at this open loop fault time.

 

However, as I keep the engine idling for a long period of time the system enters closed loop and my fuel pressure stays constantly normal at 43psi with no misfire and oxygen sensors reading normally. Why does my system take so long to get to closed loop and what is open loop fault?

The HO2 sensors have to get hot before they can work right.. Open loop is when the sensors are still heating up and have no control on fuel..Closed loop sensors are hot and controlling fuel.
No other codes?
Fuel pressure is normal.. If the engine is running rough, the vacuum is low and the regulator will increase the pressure.
You running factory spark plugs?

    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
    • Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."    
    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
    • you might read through the info on gmupfitter.com for your truck, to find a good power source.
