Rocket Man's 02 Denali Build Thread AKA "THE BEAST"

1ouble click the corner that is circled in red, this should highlight all the cells in the entire table.

2:Then go up to the box circled in blue and type 99

3:Lastly, click the equal sign circled in black which should make all cells 99

This will give your truck maximum spark for moar powa!

quit givin away all the tuning secrets

 

[Rocket Man]

Would it work to run an obd2 splitter? then you could have it all out of sight, and have it hooked up and ready to go at the same time

Probably could but I’d rather not have it hooked up all the time. It’s not something that needs to be used all that often.

Is this a real thing? BTW I haven’t even figured out how to see the tables. Do I need to log first because when I open up my tune file and use the navigator all I see is a tree, no tables.

NO absolutely not but @randeez said to turn it up and since boost is fixed mechanically timing is the only way to do it.

You might be able to get it to start if you had a camshaft ground for reverse engine rotation

I just see this. I’ve looked at GRG’s videos but I don’t see anything that shows the very basics.

Edit nvm I see now. I just did that and flashed the tune. Now my truck won’t start.

You did not really do that

NO. DO NOT

 

[Rocket Man]

Lol. I’m not quite that gullible. I do have a question though- if any changes at all are made to the tune you’re looking at in the editor, does the program ask you to save changes as you exit or does it just automatically save the modified tune ‘cause that would suck if I accidentally changed something and closed the file and it automatically saved it with the changes.

Glad you didn't do that although I doubt it would start. No it will not automatically save for you unless you click "Save" Instead of "Save As" if you click save as it will ask you how you want to save it. If you close the editor it will ask if you want to save and if you say yes it will save directly over the tune you had open. best this to do is cancel closing and manual "Save As'

Or if I'm just looking like I was I can just close it and the original is untouched right?

You scared the heck out me with that one!

Congrats on the trans fix and happy to see you get into your own tuning. I have really enjoyed the process of learning and tuning with my MPVI2. I have only done trans stuff so far since I don't have my wideband yet. I don't feel comfortable with tuning on the narrowbands or even the pro's claiming they can do it with the narrowbands.

I’m planning on reinstalling the park brake shoes I removed when diagnosing a squeak. They’ve never been adjusted properly so they’ve never worked. What tool are you guys using to check clearance? The Kent Moore J 21177-a that’s listed in the SM is over $100.

 

[randeez]

you should turn the squeak off in hptuners

 

[Fless]

No go. The "mouse" won't let him turn off the "squeak."

 

[Rocket Man]

Can’t find the right switch. Sure fixed that transmission though.

I just ordered this cheap brake shoe setting tool since nobody answered my question.

You really need a tool to set the brake shoe? When I did my rear brakes(parking brake shoe) it didn't seem like a special tool was needed.
