I dropped the distributor in at 10 dbtc pointing at number 1 with the "teeth" on the reluctor lined up.

I will load new code and run the new megatune, I probibly should have done that anyways.

I will let you know what happens.

Thanks,

Matt

sounds good.

I think I will try tuning the tps accel and try running 100% on tps accel. I have read that placing a small fuel filter in the map line may help, so I might try that also.

Thanks for the replays, I'll get to work tuning!

Now the question, what is causing the map ...

I don't know if this would matter, but when I wired the 8 pin hei I spliced into the 5v ref for the tps, ran it through a relay and a oil pressure switch so there would 5v only when running. also when I calibrate the tps a window pops up and says the values "look funny" I just ...
