    You have a MacBook...?

    If you install Boot Camp it will allow you to partition the hard disk and install WinXP so you can then run the EFILive software.

    Assuming this is a LS1 Gen 3 controller, 4.8, 5.3 or 6.0, Add more start up fuel to the ECT table for start-up. Increase Table B3604 from 80 degrees up all 24x cycles. Make it the same as the 70 degree C Row. Then play with B3632 to tweak it a bit. This should help your hot start problem. Post your tune when you get a chance and a start-up log and we can take a look.

    OK so i got the start up really nice, but why is it every time i reflash its starts PERFECT. Starts perfect a few more times, but then ill let my truck sit for a little and the starts up begin to get worse and worse. So ill reflash it again, presto perfect starts. Whats the deal?
