I used the paperclip jumper to read codes. It was easier than I expected.
I just got this truck. (1993 K1500, 5.7) It runs rough at high and low RPM. The first thing I did was replace the plugs, wires, cap and rotor. Not much improvement although the shape of the plugs indicated that it was due.
I checked timing. It was off about 4 deg. I set it to unplugged at 0 deg. (TDC). Plugged in, it checked at 20 deg adv at idle. I understand that to be correct. No difference in performance.
I shotgunned the MAP sensor and Engine Temp Sensor. Still no improvement.
I got those codes but I don't know if they're "leftover." Do codes reset in short time? If not, perhaps I need to reset and give it a couple days.
With codes 42 & 54, does anyone have any suggestions on what to try next?
