    Well, after nearly 9 years of owning my Tundra I've finally decided to join the group.

    I can say that my truck has been pretty good to me over the years. I had to deal with the leaky cam tower, the only "issue" I've really had, my dealership covered it under warranty... 5 TIMES!! Other than that it's just been routine maintenance.

    The past couple months I've been dealing with the alcohol density getting out of wack. Rough, extended crank, no starts, throwing codes. I'm trying really hard to not go back to the dealership since it's a '13 and at 119k miles.

    My question and main reason for joining is, where are you guys getting your Techstream from? I've spent hours today researching and trying multiple options, but kept striking out. I bought a Tactrix openport 2.0 cable. I'd like to splice in a new pump and reset Screenshot_20230114-223835_Photos.jpg Screenshot_20230105-152411_BlueDriver.jpg the alcohol density on my own.

    Any recommendations or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    **UPDATE**
    I gave up on pirated Techstream and went the legit route and bought a two day subscription for $65.

    Flashed the ECU with the latest software, reset the alcohol density, and disabled the seatbelt chime. I'm glad to say I'm a happy Tundra owner again!

    I plan to do the same pump mod as Sumo91 and fytedapowr have done and posted here.

    You can only increase alcohol density by consuming more alcohol.
    Unless you boof it.
