Sorry for the inconvenience John
I know its not very clear, and I know people aren't doing it on purpose.

It's just really hard to keep up with all this stuff so anyway you can make my life easier would be awesome for me.

Seems to be a problem from more than one of you so

If you have a Canadian Cluster you should have a tune file like this -

"RR-10895-ZA1J700C-STG1 STOCK INTAKE v1.07 FED-M"


Must have "FED-M" in it.

Basically - what problems are you noticing?

If you dont have the correct tune file I dont' need your input, just need you to fill out the form so i can send you a correct tune file.

Let me know

Thanks

John
My fuel gauge was wonkey after initial flash, but after first fill up its been fine for 300klms, Mine regardless of what map does not show A/F ratio or Fuel%.
I have not experienced any malfunctions of any sort with the tune.

Cheers

Mine is similiar to this John. l/100 km sometimes stays at 50.0. I believe mine does not show a/f ratio or fuel % either. Gas tank readings were a little off as well but may appear to be stabilizing. After driving approximately 100 miles after filling up, tank was reading less than 1/4 tank. I do have the "M" in the tune as well. Car runs great though!

Im now on 200 miles, and the guauge is only between 3/4 and 1/2. Its almost like the guage thinks a half a tank is empty, and 3/4 is a half tank if that makes sense. My avg MPG's on map 1 still reads about 68-72 mpg at all times.

Yes. But I haven't switched to the gas percentage function on map 4 yet. Don't know if that will throw it off again.

Yeah, that happened to me, too. It just sticks at 76.2 and doesn't move. I have no idea what that's supposed to indicate.

OK guys, I need some help here. When trying to flash, I selected the ROM that John emailed me, but it gives me an Error that says "A compatible ROM file must be chosen before the ECU can be programmed."It says I have an unknown ECU version
