    Default Help, had a COS made for my car and won't idle.

    I'm new to EFI Live, I just finished building an 88 Mustang with an 03 5.3, 04 4L80E, 80lb injectors, no MAF, 3.3 bar map sensor, 411 PCM, and a S475 turbo. Since I was new to this I had someone write me a tune to start the car but it runs very rich and after running for 5 minutes it fowls the plugs. Could someone please take a look at this and offer some advice, I would really appreciate it!

    I would like to check to see how my MAP sensor is scaled. I looked for it yesterday but was unable to find it, could someone give me a hint??

    In the Search box, type C6301 (in uppercase) and click Search.

    Looks like it's scaled.

    Thanks for the reply, I will read those. I logged a little tonight, I'm slowly getting the hang of this.

    I couldn't get the car to idle at all with the 3.3 bar map sensor so I bought a Cobalt SS map sensor. I currently have it scaled at 207, and have messed with it moving it up and down but still only get 105 KPA at idle, any suggestions??

    ~200 is the scaling for a 2-bar sensor.

    I was reading up on the tutorial last night and it said to change the value in the RPM high to 2000, but when I did that the check engine light came on. Also do I need to change the value in the yellow arrow?
