Am I doing this right?...........

[FreddyG]

Hi Guys,

I set up the Auto Tune for my car and was (still am because it's my first actual tune) VERY Nervous, but the only way to learn is to read, understand, and then get my feet wet.

I collected the data like the tutorial said and got my BEN numbers and did the copy/paste with labels like Chad's tutorial said and this is what I got.

Does this look like I'm on the right track?

I've also posted my Original if you'd like to compare them. I Truly Appreciate the help!

Thanks in advance!

I cant get any of your tunes to run. Any one else?

[FreddyG]

What can I do to fix this? It's happened before too and I just reuploaded them and they worked. Could you download them or was it that they wouldn't open in EfiLive?

Thanks for looking!

[FreddyG]

I think that I fixed the problem. I think that uploading to Comcast corrupted the file. Please try again.

Just in case, I thought that it might be easier to just post up the VE table and the 3D view.

Thanks again!

Those numbers seem unreasonably high. Is your wideband setup and calibrated properly? Injector flow rate table accurate?

Yes, my WB02 seems to be setup correctly. I have a PLX SM-AFR and they say it doesn't need to be calibrated, but it does match what EfiLive says, so I think that it's alright. I've got my IFR setup according to my fuel pressure gauge, which says that I have 68 lbs. at the rail, along with 60 lb. MotoTrons which are rated at 43.5 lbs. by the manufacturer. Does that seem right?

It never hurts to get a second (or third) pair of eyes to look things over, especially with my eyes!

I took the BEN data and copy w/labels, and then opened up my tuning file and then paste/multiply w/labels. Was that right?

Does it make a difference that my car is running 10 lbs. of boost? Would that make things go higher? I'm new to this and trying to learn as much as possible, so that I can do this without being so needy (and bothersome) of you Guys.

Thanks again!

Freddy,

Your B3605 was setup using Lambda units (see attached pics of your B3605)...
** it is way too lean, do not run your car like this **.

Before you run your car again, do this:
- goto Edit->Properties and change to EQ units,
- close the tune tool and reopen it,
- setup B3605 again (regions of EQ 1.00, 1.13, 1.17) per the AVE tutorial,
- save the file,
- cal-only flash to PCM (Flash->Program PCM Calibrations).

As Doc said, VE units in g*K/kPa and air:fuel units EQ will save a lot of headaches.

You should restart your AutoVE tuning after taking care of post #13.

Thank You once again JoeCar!

I didn't even notice that!

[FreddyG]

After I run the filter in the BEN log, and then copy with labels, paste with labels and multiply, my VE table has spikes in it. Is that normal and am I heading in the right direction?

Thanks!
