    Welp! Glad it’s actually misfiring versus a misfire code. Might be funny to say, but my CEL was caused by the thrust bearing falling into the oil pan.64D12695-CF82-47B9-AE2B-88C14EE8693B.jpg

    Cyl 1 misfire without misfire. Knocked a hair in reverse. PO found about a 1/4” of crank play. Sold me the truck and I put a new motor in it.

    Update: Took my truck to the mechanic and it turned out that my timing had jumped about 3 teeth and my camshafts were advanced. That has seemed to fix the issue at hand and the truck runs well. My fuel trims are still a little off and MAF is slightly high at idle.

    I am going to make a separate post but I am now dealing with a P0172 - Rich bank one and after re-fueling it is very bad and my truck doesn't want to accelerate or drive. Almost stranded me on the side of the road but luckily after a bit I was able to get it going and drive it. While driving it will randomly rich out a bit and get sluggish for a second.

    Some stats from when the code was thrown going about 60 at 2000-24000 rpm:
    STFT B1: -10.9 & 0.8
    LTFT B1 -30.5 & -30.5
