Did your truck do this with the previous tunes? Could possibly be a mechanical issue. The injectors pump etc might not be up to the task of delivering the extra fuel that's commanded of it. Any hard starting? Excessive cranking?

hmmm seems strange. Any check engine lights etc.. when the problems start? 9r07 had alot of issues with stumble etc, then tend to clear up with my revision for the most part. Only thing I've heard is a stumble while towing, which im currently experimenting with. How's the egr system on that truck? all there? still fuctional?

O and here ya go to answer your question, this is the old crom, give it a try and see what happens..

Make sure you restore your backup first. If the predator bitches, use the legacy connect feature in dsdownloader
