    It's a 2000 Z71 new body, 5.3, bout 120,000 miles on 05 avalanche motor. Only mods is spectra cold air, screen removed on MAF, exhaust, and mid grade tune from Nelson. I can't tell which is misfiring. That's all it says I deleated the codes but ill make it doit tomarrow n get them. It has done it b4 with the old stock computer I had diablo sport on it then. But hasn't done it in a long time since the tune. But I can make it do it anytime now, seems like as long as there's no load on the motor it will do it from 2000 rpm up

    pull the plugs and read them, they will tell you which are misfiring

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    Get me a good long scan with various driving. No need to save multiple scans, just one big one. Save it as .hpt format so i can view it with the scanner.

    No, not rich. ltrims indicate how much fuel the pcm is trimming or adding to maintain stoich. -25 and a rich code would mean it's running too rich because the pcm can't pull enough fuel to satisfy commanded.

    Using hptuners, you'll be able to see individual misfires.
