    How about being able to run an injector kill test?

    This is what we use to figure out a bad injector (i.e. a bunch of white smoke or an erratic idle that isn't FCA related).

    Turn one injector off, turn it back on, turn the next off, etc.

    This may sound menial, but is there any way to get the OBDII cable with a 90* connector to the OBDII port?

    I know it may sound insignificant, but with the cable connected on the Dodges, the cable is directly between your legs and I notice myself hitting it every once in a while while logging.

    If we could get one, even buy it separately, that came out from the OBDII port and went toward the passenger side, that would be the cats meow.

    I can see how that would be a pain. We can ask our cable supplier if they have right angle connectors.
    Someone might want to consider sending an Email to Multiplex Engineering, they do custom cables, all you would need is a R/A OBD-II plug to a OBD-II socket.

    Or you could move the OBD-II connector on the truck

    Yes it is. You can do it with both the StarScan and StarMobile.

    With the vehicle running, you can pick any individual injector and shut it down.

    The vehicle will stumble if the injector was working correctly.

    If the vehicle was smoking, running rough, sputtering, etc., when you shut down the bad injector(s), the condition stops and you know which one is the problem.

    It's really useful to isolate fuel delivery issues without having to remove and test each injector or cap off the port on the fuel rail.

    I would imagine it would be possible in the bidirectional mode.

    Ok thanks, just needed to make sure the ECM was capable of doing that test. We sometimes get asked on GM vehicles for specific bi-directional tests, but unless GM programmed the ECM to have the ability then it can't happen.
