Has anyone on here installed the pulsar LT control module that was recently release?  Curious how easy it is to install and how it might compare to one of the Range DFM disablers?  I can find all sorts of videos and reviews on the range module, but this product doesn't seem to have any traction yet.

I just installed the Pulsar LT on my 2021 Sierra AT4 6.2.  Five minutes to install the hardware.  10 minutes to program.  Very easy.  Speedo calibration for bigger tires worked perfectly when checked

To summarize the other thread... the motors affected were built before 3/4/2021. The TSB states the truck VIN build dates that are affected (with the aforementioned motors) are between 9/1/2020 &

Range doesn't have a DFM disabler (not including the Pulsar LT). Range has an AFM disabler. 

 

The Pulsar took maybe 15 minutes to install and set up.

Looks like a pretty easy install:

 

The Pulsar LTinstalls in minutes without tools and requires no PCM modification or alteration. It is a simpleplug and play installation using factory connectors.

Nothing like mis-information....

Range definitely does have a DFM disabler. I have had one in my 2019 LT Trailboss 5.3 for a while now and absolutely love it. Great to have all 8 cylinders and start/stop disabled

Has anyone installed the Pulsar LT control module on/in a 2021 Chevy 6.2 liter. I know that it says up to 2020 and I emailed PTE Edge and they confirmed they have not tested it yet on 2021. I was just curious if anyone has tried it on a 2021.

I was wondering the same thing. I contacted DiabloSport and was told the same - they are working on it but don't have a date.  They asked if I would be interested in being in the test group and of course I said yes - but never heard back from them.

I have installed on my 2021 6.2 RST about two months ago.  No issues.  There is a whole nother thread about the Pulsar device.

I installed it about a week ago on my 2021 6.2 Trail Boss with no issues. Disabled DFM and auto start/stop and adjusted the throttle response (I like factory setting the best).

Everything works as it should.

I'd love one but they are backordered for 12+ weeks everywhere I've looked.  [emoji849]  Damn COVID.

Yeah my dad told me that last week. He said the manufacturer is waiting on the harness. I ordered mine just in time before they ran out.

Many thanks and I will install when I get home. I guess I got lucky when I ordered it. Also does anyone know anything about the exhaust upgrade for the 6.2 liter GM offers. I see they advertise a slight HP gain but I was wondering if it will interfere with my exhaust through bumper. I have a 2021 Trail boss midnight edition and do not want to lose my black exhaust tips

Don’t quote me but I’m pretty sure the GMPE fits the same as your stick exhaust, meaning no need to remove your exhaust bezels. I’m thinking about either the Corsa or Borla S type. Haven’t decided yet. For right now I just had the muffler deleted and it sounds pretty good.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
