Default Stall Question

I've been noticing a miss (especially in low RPM and most noticible in reverse) since I installed my Gryphon. Figured I'd give it a bit but it actually stalled out on me today backing into a parking spot. Running level 2 tow. Any ideas?

Year of truck?
Engine?
Miles?
Last time sparkplugs/COP changed?

2004 5.4. Might as well say 70,000 on original plugs. Don't know what COP means.

COP= coil on plug

Does the miss happen all the time or is it more sporadic?

Coul be a variety of things causing this.
Throttle body needs to be cleaned.
Mass air flow needs to be cleaned with MAF cleaner.
Low grade miss fire from plugs or COPs.
When canned level 2 tow was loaded did you notice a difference in idle when warmed up?

The first time I noticed it was backing into my parking spot at work the day after I installed my unit. This was 4 days ago and it's happened in the same scenerio each day since but today to the point of a stall. Not sure what to make of it.

As for idle.....Idle's high on start up 1300 or so and then drops down to around 600. It's habit that I never pull out before the idle down and I can't say I notice much difference now vs. before I installed the programmer. Seems to take about the same timeframe and drops to around the same level. If anything....RPM's may baseline a little higher than before. It used to drop to around 500 before I pulled out. Once warmed up.....It appears to run around 700 now which does seem higher than before. I believe even once warmed up before installing the programmer it would still hang around the 500 mark but I can't promise my memory is serving me correctly on that. Overall in answer to your question....It apears to run a little higher RPM at idle across the board.

The possible issues you are mentioning make sense as to the possible cause of the issue but I don't get why they never occurred before I installed the gryphon. All I can figure is that it modified settings based on the assumption that everything was in good working order when in fact I do have an issue with one of the mentioned. Overall I'm happy....Much better acceleration and shifting....This stalling issue has me a little concerned though. Something that is going to drive me crazy until I figure it out.

Sometimes programmers amplify certain things such as dirty throttle bodies and or MAF's. Just the nature of the beast I guess?!

You need to fill out more of your user cp like HEX and serial number also.
