also my launch control is not working. I searched and found a few tips like make sure you are in the right map, stop the car and put in neutral, release clutch, press clutch put in first and floor gas pedal.
I give it another try beacause I mignt not have been in neutral with the clutch out before I tried it.

Launch control steps must all be performed within a certain amount of time. Clutch in, first gear then wot. All within a second or two.

I jumped the gun

sorry John. This is only for guys with A00D ROM files.

I'm slowly learning how this works

It's the ROM ID that corresponds to the US Automatic version of his tune.

I would like to add something to this E85-fuel-filter-concern:
In many if not most permanent gluing applications epoxy adhesive is applied and epoxy has an excellent chemical resistance as far as ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is concerned: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/ch...oxy-d_786.html
Having said that: We don't know what glue was used, but it would be odd if Subaru purposely chose a glue which had little ethanol resistance.

However, there would be relatively easy way to test this:
Put a filter in a pressure cooker filled with E100 and let it cook overnight at 80 to 100 C. If the filter would not withstand ethanol it should show signs of disintegration in the morning. (A rule of thumb says that every 10 C additional temperature, doubles the speed of a chemical process.)

Hey,

Everyone has to eat, even Santa's trolls

This may also be the reason why having the pump submerged in cold weather withstood better compared to a car constantly at track temps for 5k miles.

The temperature seems a bit high especially in a pressure cooker as you may melt the plastic just by the temp alone.
However, this is much better than claiming no harm done without actually doing proper tests.

We're been working on a Flashing Guide for a while now.

Let me know what you think

Ryan86 · 05-29-2013, 08:47 AM

This is great John, will certainly help those new to the tuning scene undertand the process better, preventing sending uneccessary tickets and frustrating you.
Like myself :happy0180:

Nice document. Should really help keep people from getting it wrong.
