Need some help diagnosing this. Fuel Cut?

I can scan lines A thru AW with the labels frozen at the top much faster.

Numbers are easier to read than squiggly lines. I can spot patterns easier.

I managed to find and diagnose the fuel cut in a few minutes by visual pattern matching, in an excel sheet with 63,357 cells. Give my method some credit.

I did the same thing at first. I don't even use excel. I use Open Office. Datazap is an easy way to share and collaborate. You can toggle parameters at will, zoom in and out, normalize them against each other. All kinds of handy stuff.

In no way did I discredit your method. Quite the opposite, I remained attentive even after you turned up your nose at my offering. Why? Because I knew I would learn something. Until tonight, I wasn't even aware high-boost fuel cut was a thing.

It's not a contest. When I say "Thanks, Spartarus." I mean it.

Well then, thanks, and cheers.



I was feigning indignance about datazap. Hence the Matrix reference. It was meant as a joke. That, and I really do prefer my spreadsheets.

Anyway, boost fuel cut is an ECUTEK tuning feature. I'm not an ECUTEK tuner but I see that he's tuned by James M and he is.

I'm actually over my head once you get into the specific details of ECUTEK features, but it makes a lot of sense for the symptoms.

Of course!

I was joking too. Hell, I thought it was a well-placed tit for tat. I was stretching a bit from my first post so it was a relief to see you jump in. I blew a good hour trying to make sense of the raw data before finally giving in to charts.

Hey, @Kiske, not a foregone conclusion but it does fit. Keep us posted.

Getting another 4bar onmi tonight. Sadly i dont have another sensor other than the syock whoch wouldnt rear right with boost anyways.

Got the MAP sensor in today. So far so good on my first test drive. Will go for another drive after dinner. Fuel trims are still a bit off but, with the hard reset I expect that until a good 100 miles or so.
