Ok I know jack about Dmax's so help a cummins guy out here...
I have a buddy with an '05 LLY, which he believes is bone stock cept exhaust. He bought it used. He claims it is idling kinda rough, and feels like it stumbles at highway speeds. No codes are being thrown. He is worried it is an injector. I think the truck has about 100k on it.
So after some research I found you can check balance rates to check injectors with EFI live.
I have another buddy with EFI live and says for $100 I can buy a license and use it to scan the other guys truck.
Is this correct?
What steps do I have to go through to do this with EFI live? I work in IT for a living so know my way around computers so comfortable with that, just never worked with EFI live or a Dmax.
I read about the ice pick trick, but I think that usually throws a code as to which injector is malfunctioning. Also read about the wire harness over the alternator, but that usually also throws a code.
Anything else it could be?
