I doubt it. I'm sure there were many other changes.

I can't answer that question, but the Smarty SSR is out, I think it can, and if not, EFI Live is coming out for the newer trucks now, but will be out for ours later, and they will be able to turn off the injector pulses off.

EFI Live is a very in depth programmer. It will let you control just about every engine function. You can manipulate functions that other programmers can't. You can make custom maps, but be forewarned. You better know what your doing before you jump off the deep end with that.

That third injector is not causing the heat, it's that edge.

1000 is not that bad towing on flat ground with a programmer.

Rubbish.

I haven't even looked at the features of the SSR, I had no idea it was capable of that. Maybe I need to get rid of my SR and step it up?

No,you can't do that. there are too many differences between the years to swap.

I could be wrong now that it's out... I know when it was coming out, and Bob Wagner had a huge thread going on CompD, or wherever he hangs out at that's not here, there was talk of it eliminating that third pulse.

Its not capable of that yet. Marco pulled that feature in the first release to do further testing.

Currently, I believe EFI Live is only for the 6.7's. I don't think they have a product yet for the 5.9's.

To elminate the 3rd event buld your engine, transmission, etc, to make power in the lower rpm's and keep the driven rpm's under 2500 is the only way to eliminate it.
