Well if you are getting a code for no cats it is going to screw with your fueling. Maybe not a misfire but it will mess with the fuel

I’m not getting a code for the cats. I’m getting multiple misfire codes. When it misfires, it goes lean on bank one.

Hmmm I am thinking it has got to be a fueling issue on bank one. did you swap injectors? Move all of bank one to bank two? I don't see that you had

I have replaced all 8 injectors. I have moved plugs between the 2 banks as well as coils and no change.

I'd say check with the noid light next. 

I got a wiring diagram for the engine harness. I traced the wires to the o2 sensors and they are all fine. I get good solid ground and power to all of them. Bank 1 sensor 1 is holding stead at 1275. I believe that is my issue that’s throwing it all off between the 2 banks. The sensor is good. I took it for a drive and the sensor started reading about the same as all the others and it was fine and then shot back to 1275 and stayed flat. I’m wondering if I have a leaking exhaust manifold and it’s sucking air, thus making the sensor readings wrong.

A leaking exhaust manifold doesn't suck air. Check your injector harness with a noid light.

 

It stays flat when it is in open loop I believe. Can't remember

Found some leaks. Both sides of the exhaust are leaking where the y pipe bolts to the manifolds. Had the trans rebuilt so the y pipe was removed. Also found the rear most manifold bolt on the passenger side totally backed out.

Well that could cause it. But it would lose air, still cause it to be out of spec though! The fuel for that side would just be up

 

Glad you possibly found the result

It does have some exhaust leaks. Mainly on the passenger side. I removed the computer and used fiber optic wire cleaner and a brush and cleaned all the connections. Now it’s running good. But sensor one is flat lined at 1275.

It can.  I know on my truck, which had 6 broken off bolts when I bought it, the O2 sensors indicated mixture was very lean until I fixed them.

    • "Increase"?   You want to "increase" your turning radius?     What is your truck?  What kind of cab and bed do you have currently?  Is it stock?  Modified?  Lifted?  
    • OP's quote is parts and labor.  Not just parts.     The # you found isn't the right one.  But besides that, the right # is the same price within a couple bucks.  $5802.01.    Now, factor in labor and fluids.  Book time is 17.1 hours for a Colorado 8 speed.  At $200/hr for a dealer average rate, its $3420 just in labor.  We are already at $9222.  Fluid and other necessary items, there's your $400-500 more.      Also.  Your "discounted" transmission.  Which is 99% likely quoted off of GM Parts Direct as that's the MSRP I found on their site.    You failed to note the $597 in shipping charges.  So we are right back almost to MSRP.  $5794.  Oh.  AND, you better have the $4000 for the core charge which you'd have to pay and get refunded, AND you gotta pay to SHIP THE CORE BACK.    So now you'd have paid MORE to buy that one online yourself, even after you get your core refunded.

    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future.
