Question about rough running after customizing the tune

ticopowell · #1 Fri, January 15th, 2010, 03:15 AM

I dont know if I just am not doing it right, but when i try to customize a tune I can go input everything, the WOT adjustment, tire size, etc... but when i start my truck after the new program is installed the engine starts, but runs really really rough and then dies. I have tried it twice and each time the same thing happened. As soon as i change it back to stock or to one of Bill's tunes it goes back to normal.
Am I doing something wrong? or is there something wrong with the programmer?
I honestly hope that it is just me so I dont have to bother Bill or Corey too much. anyone know? thanks

and just on a side note, I ordered my Class Ring this week

, I dont know how much anyone really knows about that on here, but It is a big deal for a cadet

I still remember my ring weekend (many moons ago). I felt like I was finally in the home stretch.

Post some pics when you get it!

I think the quote's one of the best I've seen in a long time too! Colin Powell seemed a VERY intelligent General.

Back to your problem: Try using the custom options menu again, but this time, DO NOT adjust the WOT fuel (I'm assuming you may have tried resetting that before). In the past, that particular adjustment has caused the symptoms you describe. Leaving it alone seems to make everything fine.

Why this should be, I don't know. But, you probably do not need to change the WOT fuel anyway. Bill has it set so you get enough in any high demand situation. Let us know if this fixes the problem, please.

Now, if it's not that setting, it's probably one of the others. You can try adjusting each of them, one at a time, until you find the one that causes the problem. Then, tell us which one it is.
