Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

Yes, to me the timing and TPS are within range for a cam that size
Does the BlueDriver show the real time misfire information?
If its shaking more at idle, then you are probably seeing an issue with either a coil or injector maybe plug or plug wire, looking at the live data for misfires should show which cylinder it is.
Hard starts are typically a leaking injector but could be other issues
Its not uncommon when tuning a cam like that to turn off the DTC's for misfires but you should still be able to see the live data

I tried the Delphi MAF same results, in park at 2.500 rpm flashing cel in drive I get the flashing cel around 1500 rpm.
Problem is when i finish after that flashing i zero codes on the blue driver, i was trying to figure another way on that, But I'm not sure how to see a misfire in real time,
I tried mode 6 and get a list but only 2 show up readable rich to lean of which fails at idle but not at 3k rpm, different fails at idle and 3 k rpm with flashing cel.
not sure where to find the info, there is a format Toggle to go from raw data to readable but it's grayed out for me

If there is a flashing cel there is a stored codes for cylinder misfires. You need to read those. If you can't go buy a new scanner. That way we can narrow it down to all the cylinders, one cylinder, or one bank of cylinders. You also need to read the misfire counter/cyl while its running

You can use a cheap infra red temp gun from harbor freight to see what exhaust tube is cooler then the rest after cranking, if its a dead cylinder it will be a good bit cooler than the rest. Once you identify the missing cylinder swap the coil, plug wire and plug from another cylinder and see if the misfire moves with the parts, if it does not then its something a little deeper in the engine, possible injector.

When uou say cranking, do mean turn the engine over and let it run while checking the manifolds? I have a heat temp gun.

Yeah I think I need bi directional checker my blue driver is pretty good but the flashing cel is not showing up any error codes like a normal misfire or such.

Yes crank it up then immediately check the temps, if one cylinder is misfiring the temp will be well below the others and will warm up at slow rate compared to the others

So I tried the heat gun, mixed results, on the driver side they started at 0 Celsius and cylinder 3 went to 20 pretty quick the others kinda stayed around 0 to 10 then they warmed up 3 seemed warmer.... I tried a family members trick and he said unplug the coils to see if you can feel a drop in the idle or chug if there is no change that might be the bad one, but I had 2 or 3 unplugged at once and it seems to dle the same except for what feels like a little pick up when pluging each back in. Strange enough no CEL solid but afterwards the P03... codes did read but not all the unplugged coils, example I could unplug 3 then 1 but the p error might only show cylinder 3.

i got my xtool a30m and i can see the misfires realtime .
At idle not much maybe the odd cylinder 3 but with a little gas and 1500 rpm theres a lot of cyl 3 misfires and with a few others, get into the flashing CEL and most of the cylinders show misfires but 3 is always the highest.

I do notice at idle with no misfires popping up, the CYCLES OF MISFIRES just counts up from 25 to 95 then starts over with random number increasing, ex. 27 47 66 93 .... 33 53 75 88 .... etc. Is this normal I googled but not sure if that means misfires total in a cycle ? Even though each individual cylinder does not show a misfire

The xtool has a cam sensor adjustment which I guess is a crank re learn, I'm thinking of trying that like Neal said, I just don't want to do sonething I can't reverse.

I posted a shot of the total misfires over 20 secound period giving it gas around 2 or 3 k rpm




Any thoughts

looking on utube your scanner can perform a crank relearn, I would start there
Cylinder 3 looks to have an issue, if the crank relearn does not fix it then move the coils, plug wires and plugs between cyl 1 and 3 and see if the misfire moves to cyl 1
The misfires your seeing on the other cylinders more than likely is due to the cam.
I have 3 trucks with cams, 2 of them are using gen 3 ECM's and 1 is a gen 4 they all show random misfires but do not cross the threshold to set the P03** codes.

whats your fuel pressure at the rail? should be over 50psi at idle and not dip below that at throttle. use a mechanical gauge at the fuel rail. you can also try tapping the miss firing injectors firm but not so hard as to break them. watch the miss fire counts and see if they stop or slow down as you do the procedure on that cylinder. if it helps then run some really good injection cleaner in the fuel or inject it into the rail with its injection cleaner pressure vessel.

Not sure what type of gauge I would need for that.
u did learn that there's no poiint buy an XTOOL A30M for a crank relearn. It won't let me it gets to the point where you enter the radio type then says its not supported.
