Enhanced parameters are additional data that can be scanned from most late-model GM vehicles. The LS1 and L67/L36 support all of these listed below.

Enhanced GM Parameters: (may not apply to all vehicles)

Parameter

Description

Typical Value

BARO

Barometric pressure

Depends on weather. Typically

 

 

29-30 inches of mercury. NOTE:

 

 

Doesn’t work on all cars

FTC

Fuel trim cell

Varies with engine conditions. In

 

 

general, numbers go up with

 

 

load, except for cells 20-22,

 

 

which may be used for open loop

 

 

(including full throttle)

IAC

Idle air counts

20-60 at warm idle to 100 while

 

 

cruising; higher when a/c is on

IDC1

Injector duty cycle, driver’s

1-2% at idle, up to 85% at full

IDC2

side & passenger side

throttle

IGNV

Ignition volts

12 volts or so with key on, down

 

 

to 9.5-9.8 during starting, then

 

 

13.5-14.5 with engine running

IPW1

Injector pulse width

2-4 milliseconds up to 15-20 at

IPW2

 

higher rpm’s and full throttle

KR

Knock retard

Zero to 3-4 degrees

 

 

Ideally, should always be zero

MAFF

Mass air flow frequency

2200-2300 at idle, 9000+ at full

 

 

throttle

MISP

Primary misfiring cylinder

1-8 if misfires present

MISR

Revolutions with misfires

0-10 revs is common; more than

 

 

that may indicate problem

TFT

Transmission Fluid

Ambient to 200 deg F or so.

 

Temperature

Above 225 and the tranny fluid

 

 

starts to deteriorate.

TPSV

Throttle position sensor

0-5Volts; typically 0.5 volts at

 

voltage

idle & 4.5 at full throttle
