I think those are the ones @Sportsguy83 had with his AVO kit.

Are these a concern occasionally? I just started noticing them on the last tune my tuner sent me..Maybe flash back and see if that fixes things.

Any thoughts?
I've had misfire Cyl. 1 Code (P0301) and it was too rich of a tune. AFR dipping into the low 10's high 9's

Too much fuel to support burn so it doesnt fire.

Bet thats my issue. Its only every once in a while, and as i have shown in other threads...my afr dips to 9.6 on initial boost. Spoke to my tuner, he said he has it running rich on initial spool up to help protect the motor, maybe jsut a bit too much...

Just got back from some 15 minutes of spirited driving, and could not get it to go again, so just going to monitor it for now.

Yeah. Tell me about it. The time will come soon. I have one more chance with this tuner. The 18th of November. He is offereing to retune the car starting from scratch with the AVO base map. For Free. So if he can get it great, if not, then i will be doing either a remote tune, or sending/driving my car to Florida.

Drive it down here. We'll wait for you with open arms.

Honestly good luck man. Hope its all sorted out soon!

In all seriousness Toni has a pretty good map right now for my car an E85 and he's always willing to help.

You could drive to Tejas instead. Toni will be tuning there later this year.

Still would love for an action packed picture tutorial on how to do plugs.


...it's dreadful thinking about lifting the motor just for plugs!

hook it up! i would surely pay somebody $60 in a heartbeat to do the plugs. moreover, i wanna know how their secret!

...i just don't see any other way other than lifting the motor. you've literally got two fingers worth of space between the frame rails and coils. ...and that's on the driver's side with no ecu!

Yes. Hopefully they'll be a DIY tutorial on changing the plugs. I'd really like to know how these magician mechanics are gettng to the plugs without lifting the engine. I just can't get my head around it. Seems like the only way is lifting the engine and that procedure blows ass loads!
