I have to get to work somehow.

Ignorance is bliss in this case. I have seen the SAME failures and the SAME terrible designs for a decade now. Has GM done anything to fix these shortcomings? No. Therefore I drive a Ford.

I've been up and running with it for a couple months now. It's just that Bill had run into issues when trying to change the definition files for a fellow Sniper tuner that was used to seeing tables in a different way...the way Sniper has them set up. I've been working with Sniper for nearly a year now, but overcame the different table layout and the "metric way" and "right way" pressure and temperature differences.


So I've only been able to work with PMT1 and TDE1 in Minotaur for a while...but that's ok because I have thousands of dollars of Sniper tuning software sitting here too and a whole helluva lot of almost useless definition files from them. My Sniper stuff is used for manual transmission trucks at this point.




I have had a couple powerstrokes. I still have one.

Ok Bill suggested I look at the Inferred Throttle Position map in regards to the Cruise control being to aggressive and also said there are some gain options which ill have to try and figure out myself will also try the cruise accel rate setting modification
Just got the new tunes onto my chip tonite so need to run those for a while and also run some AE data logging before changing anything... need to reseal the front axle and replace the caliper pins with the upgrade kit and fix oil cooler oil leak etc. so it will be a while before i get to trying out any modifications i make to the tunes
