2001 ram 1500 5.9 gas.
Predator 2 with 180 t-stat.
I'm getting a P1281 Engine is Cold Too Long code and its de-tuning the engine.
Anyone else have that issue?
New tuner & new t-stat.

I did the 180 t-stat and tuner at the same time.

OK, may need to consider a stock or warmer stat.
Hemis have a similar code when running too cool a stat, but there's some changes in custom tuning that can be done to work around it, but that's not an option here unfortunately.
