Someone offered my asking price of 15k.

My back locked up the other day, and it took me forever to even get in the truck, like 25 minutes.. I hated feeling like a invalid at the mall. We werent home, so I could not just use the other car, and my wife is currently prohibited from driving.

This whole getting old thing sucks, and I am likely younger than most others on the board!

Have you tested it to see what it is at the rail?

Naah, I haven't tested it. My truck has the physical fuel composition sensor, and it seems to be fairly accurate. Just a feeling, though. When I run low-ethanol fuel the percentage drops below 10, and resets to a high number within a few miles after filling with high-ethanol fuel. I should probably get one of those testers and verify what I'm putting in it.

@Fless, what’s the reason behind tracking your ethanol content?

Just to see if/how the truck adjusts the percentage, and I like to familiarize myself with the Tech 2. Wish I could find a good ethanol PID for Torque Pro.

But for curiosity's sake I should do some kind of comparison with a known sample, since I'm not really certain that the fuel composition sensor value is accurate. Not that it matters much as long as the fuel trims adjust and I have that awesome feeling of power under foot. (As Dad would have said, the "foot-feed.")

Hey! I resemble that! ;) Seriously, I really lucked out getting a good solid truck, not having done much research on them before I bought. I have learned a lot about them since, though, mostly on the shared experiences of this great TYF community.
