    Default First start up for conversion! What PID's should I be scanning?

    Hi,
    I am getting close to giving my GenIII 5.7 with a 4L60E trani that I have fitted to my HJ60 Landcrusier it's first start (since I bought it).

    What PID's should I be monitoring during first start up and initial run?

    Or before I even turn the key is there some PID's or conditions I should enssure are right before try for a start?

    I would appreciate any input!

    Include these engine pids:
    VSS
    TP
    RPM
    DYNCYLAIR or DYNCYLAIR_DMA
    DYNAIR
    MAF (SAE or GM)
    MAP (SAE)
    IAT
    ECT
    EQIVRATIO or AFR
    SPARKADV
    KR
    LONGFT1
    LONGFT2

    Maybe include these also:
    DYNAIRTMP_DMA
    SHRTFT1
    SHRTFT2
    HO2S11 (not HO2S12 or HO2S22)
    HO2S21 (not HO2S12 or HO2S22)
    IBPW1
    IBPW2
    MFTOTAL

    Maybe include some auto trans pids:
    TFT
    GEAR
    TCCMODE
    TFMPRS
    TRQENG
    SHIFTLAST


    Keep the pid channel count to 24 or fewer channels (see bottom of PIDs tab).

    Example of 24 channels:
    VSS
    TP
    RPM
    DYNCYLAIR
    DYNAIR
    MAF (SAE or GM)
    MAP (SAE)
    IAT
    ECT
    EQIVRATIO or AFR
    SPARKADV
    KR
    LONGFT1
    LONGFT2
    SHRTFT1
    SHRTFT2
    HO2S11 (not HO2S12 or HO2S22)
    HO2S21 (not HO2S12 or HO2S22)
    MFTOTAL

    Hey Leychut
    best of luck with the start-up, please post your results if you dont mind. Im also almost ready to start up for the first time with a fresh motor (built from scratch) and would be interested to see how yours goes.

    I wouldn't log anything until the first drive (and even then I probably wouldn't log anything until I have a feel for something that needs corrected)

    Keep eyes on oil pressure, coolant temp and level, check for fuel or other fluid leaks. IMO, doing these things is much more important than anything you'll find in a first-start data logging session.

    A wideband would be nice so you could monitor AFR to make sure it's not dumping fuel.

    Good luck, lots of exciting times ahead!
