Hi gang...Could use some advice from those more knowledgeable than I!...I just bought a Blue Driver OBD2 interface for use when I tow a 7,000 LB. travel trailer. I desire to be informed as much as is reasonably possible as to the "important parameters" of the power train of my truck, especially while under towing stress. So, could y'all let me know which of the below listed "Ford supported parameters" would be most useful for me to track on my iphone as I cruise through the country (five maximum)?
The "supported" parameters (not including the obvious: coolant temp, etc.) are: Evap. system vapor pressure; Catalyst temp bank 1&2 sensors; Control Module Voltage; Absolute load value; Command Equivalence ratio; Intake Manifold absolute pressure; Timing advance for #1 cylinder; Fuel rail pressure; Command Evaporative purge; Command throttle actuator; Fuel system status; Calculated engine load value; Short term fuel trim bank 1&2; long term fuel trim bank 1&2.
There are also several "throttle and pedal position" parameters that seem to me to not be critical for viewing during operation, but what do I know?...
If I could get a brief reason for certain parameters to be viewed during operating that would be most appreciated...
Thanks to all in advance for this help!...
