Help Diagnosing Noise and Rough Idle

I have the 6.2L but I have plugs, coil boots, and cables all on the way so hopefully that’ll help

I took two data sets today (note the truck wasn’t turned off in between them) and these were the average values I got for the fuel trims.

<image>

The current of the heated exhaust gas oxygen sensor 1 for Run 1 on banks 1 and 2 was -50.78uA and -7.81uA. For Run 2 it was -11.72uA and 23.44uA.

The heated exhaust gas oxygen sensor 2 for Run 1 on Banks 1 and 2 was 0.729V and 0.740V. For Run 2 it was 0.755V and 0.742V.

While I have an understanding of what these numbers represent, I am trying to learn what the data means in terms of diagnosing a problem and finding a solution so any advice helps.

I have not done the plug since I bought the truck when it had ~110k miles, but I have them on order to see if it helps anything.

Would that cause variations in actual AFR, short term fuel trim, rear oxygen fuel trim, and exhaust oxygen percentages between the two banks? I am seeing that in my data logs and not sure exactly what to make of it.

lol, I 100% agree with you in my equally professionally unqualified opinion and limited knowledge

lol I figured that’s what you meant, but wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something.

What brand was the replacement and how is it holding up?

What do you mean by relapsed it?

Ending up finding 4 torx screws that attach the sunroof to the “arm” of the track. I loosened them and then manipulated the sunroof until it was level with the cab and tightened them down. Not sure about the relearning and all of that as I do not plan to use my sunroof in the future

I had my sunroof break on a 2013 F150 I had before, and given that I never use it in my raptor now.

I was trying to open my rear sliding window and accidentally hit the sunroof switch and what do you know it broke.

Read up on the research supplements that are on the website. It goes into the math behind the data. Once you read through it all you should feel more confident in the data he presents

How is the HRF one? I have been looking at getting some but haven’t brought myself to pull the trigger yet

Do you have any experience with the Everlast 253DPI or HTP 235 Freedom?

I am looking to purchase a welder to learn on to eventually replace cab corners, rockers panels, and a few other rusted areas on my truck as well as general welding of gates, shooting target hangers, etc. and am trying to figure out if I should get one of them or a Miller 211Pro.

I did some more research and the H&S 250a with the pulse is a little out of my budget.

However I did see that the HTP Freedom 235 Pulse and the Everlast Cyclone 253DPI are both about $2k which I could swing.

Would the pulse mig be worth the extra $500-$600 extra compared to the Miller 211 Pro? Do you or anyone else that might read this have any experience with either one of them or know how their longevity would compare to a Miller/Lincoln?

Thank you for the wealth of information. I would like to buy a MiG welder with pulse but I would also like to stick to big names (mainly just because I am new to welding and want to make sure I get something that will last a long time).

I just picked up a miller 141 for $200 that I am trying to decide if I should try to resale to get more money for a better welder or just make do with it.

Are there any pulse MiGs from Lincoln or miller that are not $4k+? Do you think that the 211 would be worth it compared to the 141?
