Have anybody done V6 graph testing???

I have v6 camaro. Something wrong with engine. I got software anf cable to connect to ECM and did graph testing of the engine. So I got various parameters. Now I need to compare them to normal operating engine parameters.
If you have so, please reply on escapolog@mail.ru.

Many Thanks,

Peter.

I use ALDL cable from www.aldlcable.com and beta version of TTS datamaster software (DataMaster 8F 3.4.21).

It plots various graps and produces a bulk of digits. intake air temp, engine temp, TPS data, RPM I can check and they seems to be OK. But MAP, Ignition advance, and some other data I can not check. So I need normal operating engine parameters as base paramenters to compare.

Engine at all have the following

1) poor gas mileage
2) rough idle
3) stalling
4) ESC 43
5) poor dynamic

all sensors are new
ground is ok (all wires repleced with new)
new spark plugs
new wires
new distr cap and rotor
engine is 2000 miles after reconditioning

Datamaster records data to a file and we can interchange these files to locate problems in our cars.

datamaster's "application" page doesn't list any software that is compatible with our v6 computers. tuner pro r/t is the only thing that i have found that will read our computers.

edit: someone correct me if i'm wrong but that beta version says that its for the turbo grand prix. they run the $8F where the 3.1 camaros and birds use the $88...those aren't enterchangable, are they?

Just choose 'unknown vehicle selection' in seturp->vehicle type before recording.
