Bad programming can and will suppress fault codes from being communicated. (05-04-2021 )Smokin64 Wrote: -Note 2: Injectors and o-rings were replaced about 4k miles ago due to 25.3% fuel dilution. Turns out the cylinder head had a crack at the upper fuel port for injector #3, and at 25% fuel dilution and 600k miles since the last overhaul, it got overhauled again. This rough idle starting issue began about 1 week after the overhaul, but I have no more fuel in the oil. If your a mechanic and DON'T have the proper software to work on an engine then that IS YOUR CHOICE. Whether you buy an official version or find a free copy on the internet or pay a couple hundred on ebay for a chineese inline 6 that comes with the software. Either way, it's a tool any modern mechanic should have, just like owning wrenches and sockets.

However, if you're concerned about the condition of the ecm then try giving it a few good taps while the truck is running. However it doesn't seem to match your description. Programming on the other hand is most likely the main underlying problem for this truck, coupled with (as you describe) half-assed clowns working on it that don't know what the hell they are doing and just throw parts at it until something happens.
