    Default auto ve tune on 99 camaro ss goes lean

    I am new to tuning and trying to learn as I go but I dont want to hurt the engine doing it. I have a V1. The main problem right now is that the commanded afr goes to 16.8 and sends my wide band to 17 or so. full lean at about 30% throttle. The car lays down and stumbles.what am I doing wrong? it runs rich the rest of the time. this is the first time I have driven the car after installing a 6.0 with ls3 heads and intake. Please bear with me while I try to get this figured out. thanks guys.

    Hi Supershift67,
    It is always helpful to post your tune. This way the experienced guys (not me) can give you specific feedback.

    Cheers,

    Hi Supershift67,

    As I mentioned earlier I am still learning myself. Your VE table looks interesting.

    I see you have modified the VE table. Was this with data from your logging?

    Can you post some screen dumps of your maps?

    Cheers,

    Laychut

    this is my original tune, I did modify the autovetune with updated tables and I did not save an untuned autove tune like I should have. I dont know how to post any screen dumps, i am very new to this and lucky to have gotten this far..

    If you watch the data logging on the scan at frame 2274 the commanded shows 16.8 and the actual is 18. This scared me so I stopped where I was at tuning wise an decided to ask here. I did not have a good base tune to start with so something is out of wack.
    The rundown on the car is
    6 speed ,
    lq4 6.0
    with a 225 229 580 590 cam and ls3 heads
    2010 camaro intake and injectors.
    full length headers to 3" single exhaust. stock maf with 96mm throttle body

    Hi ss67,

    Your B3605 is lean in the operating range, you need to do this:
    - go Edit->Properties and check the Fueling Units, change this to EQR, click Ok, exit tunetool, restart tunetool;
    - goto B3605 an remove that trench, you want this area to be at least 1.13 EQR, altho I think 1.16 EQR is safer;

    Also your VE tables (Main and Backup) are messed up, revert these back to stock and add 10% (you might have to adjust this initial bump) (what did you add when you started AutoVE...?)
