Can it count or read misfires on the vortecs or have any readout for the updated mpfi?

I have Torque, it has the PIDs for misfires and injector pulse width. Misfires show a reading of 0(says it's working) not sure if it is working properly, because I have a miss. I am not getting any readings on the injector pulse width though.

Thanks! and dammit.

Find some loose gravel or slippery surface to activate it. Of coarse you'll have to have some kind of pedal.

I can't find those pids on mine.

From the Torque Home screen
Settings
Settings
Manage extra PIDs/Sensors
3 dots at the tops
add predefined set
Pontiac/GM/Opel/Vauxhall

Then on your live data screen you can add a reading for a number of different PIDs that were loaded.

I'm fortunate enough to live on 75 acres and have a long lane way to run the abs. plus I activate them all the time in the snow. my brakes and abs work wonderfully in both of my trucks.

I just wish I could do a couple things with an app rather than handing over a tonne of money I dont have so I can do the crank/cam correlation and bleed the abs.

I'll figure it out eventually.

Using the torque app today, I got my CMP Offset within limits finally, see my thread for details of the nightmare.

I no longer notice a miss, but my misfire counts are working now. They are no longer reading 0. I'm getting about 2-6 randomly on random cylinders. Nothing noticeable, is that ok? I've never dealt with misfire counts before.

Also last time I used the app the gear indicator didn't work, now it is working perfectly fine. Shows what gear the trans is in, which is kind of cool. I also set up one page with all trans info. Temp, input speed, output speed Torque converter clutch slip, and gear. All that is working great, good info to have.

I looked and didn't see anything for this. If I am wrong, please move/delete/combine whatever the case may be.

I recently got the Torque Pro app and was able to read CMP Offset with it. It takes a little work, so I figured I would post it here(found it on another Forum). Others can add tips and tricks that help.

To add CMP offset PID follow these steps:
Settings
Manage Extra PIDs/Sensors
Hamburger Button at Top
Add Custom PID
OBD2 Mode: "221301"
Long Name: "Cam Retard Offset" name is really whatever you want
Short Name: "CMP Offset" again whatever you want here
Minimum Value: "-100"
Maximum Value: "100"
Scale Factor: x1
Unit Type: "Degrees"
Equation: " ((signed(A)*256+b)*0.063) "
OBD Header: "6C10F1"
Does not override any PID
OK

Now you can add that readout on your display pages.

I intend to learn a lot more about the app and will add what I find in this thread, and would appreciate others doing the same.

tried this and get a message about checking parenthasis on that equation line when hitting ok.

Buying a Tech 2 clone sounds like a great option if you have multiple trucks. It'll only take one or two jobs to pay it off at dealership rates.

well have the gauge on display now, the torque app connects with the obd and ecm,,,but the gauge gets no signal..other gauges seem to function,,although i dont know how to interprt. l know the disributor is on the correct tooth but needto verify that magical 4 degrees ,, cant rev over 1500rpms,,, i had it set retty good beföre swapping distributr.. also,,does 24 degrees on the timing seem correct when trying to rev???

What did you do to fix the parenthasis error? I am getting the same. Any updates on getting the cmp retard checked? I can't seem to get the correct PID to work.
