somehow i managed to upload the unedited video file last time like the dumbass that I am.

Want to Learn How To TUNE Holley Efi, Terminator X, and Sniper?

I appreciate your videos so much . I been a Automotive Technician since 18 I'm 49 now at the dealership level and you sir got your skill down. Very impressive. God bless and again thank you!

When you are new to all of this, having a safe tune saved in a folder on my desktop has saved me a few times. Thanks Joe..!!

Great info Joe! The gcf from last night's trilogy group post is my go to.
I had never thought about saving the log file. The way you explained why you should do so makes perfect sense now, and i will be adding it to the folder!
I've now pre built like 10-15 different 60' attempt configs so when we get back to the track, I can simply read conditions, load what I think the surface will take and probably miss by a mile!!😂
To anyone watching, if you are new to any of the Holley systems I strongly suggest enrolling in Tune The Trilogy!!
The time you're going to save familiarizing yourself with the system far outweighs the cost!

I think I just decided to stay with carburetors.

Joe, I have a better idea for saving "Default" tune ups for you AND your customers that you assist. When you have that default tune up established, go into the "saved files" directory and find that default file. Right click on it, select "Properties." Now, you should see a menu...look for the "Attributes" row near the bottom. There should be an option called: "Read Only." Check that block and click apply. Now, the software/user/customer cant save any adjustments made to that file/tune up and they will be FORCED to save any changes to a different name. If they need to go back, they just reload the default tune you/they already have.

You can thank me later for the misery I saved you and your customers and its very easy for the customer to get out of a bind if they go to deep in one direction and make the tune up worse.

Great tech tips. Exactly what I’ve been looking for.

[kimmoline]

Great advise. Wish I would have kept a couple logs from last year

[jesscneal]

That first upload seemed a bit raw :D I'll watch this one too so you get the click/view 👍👍

You talked about bad IAC numbers and replacing it. I did that. Had a broken engine mount, letting the engine rise up, and a spark plug wire was hitting my wiper motor. MOPAR LA engine in a 69 A-Body. Giving a very weak spark to one cylinder. There was nothing wrong with the IAC! Lesion learned.

this video describes almost exactly what happened to my sniper efi. I love the car a 1969 Pontiac grand prix and wasn't really happy about the car almost stranding me on the road. the repair shop says the sensor is bad which from watching videos I thought might be the issue. I called Holley tech support, and they thought the same. I mentioned that engineering should design the system so if something fails it should default to a safe operating condition, so we end users don't get stranded. Holley says it can be done but didn't go into detail on how to do it. you touched on it and I asked my repair tech if he could do it but I wasn't real confident with his reply. do you have a tech support number, or could I send that sd card to you to fine tune the settings? jim d

Good video Joe! How much do you charge to tune sniper efi? I need a tuner in northern California.

Question for anyone that knows. So what if I’m only busing for street use. ? Cruising around. How in depth should I get on this thing?

[bst_SS]

9000ft DA to Sea Level, how much close loop percentage is needed to keep the car running properly?

[tonyimbarrato]

Can we just save the existing file to the SD card in the handheld display?

[musclecars]

Joe, I drove the car about 75 miles over the weekend and the engine stalled a few times right in the middle of driving. It felt as if the fuel was limited because as long as I pumped the gas pedal it kept running but it did run rough. then it cleared up itself. how do I troubleshoot this condition?

[richardray]

Great info. However, when using save global file as, I went back to open and would not open with Adobe. What are people using to open the file?

[daveking]

Hey there new to your. Handel as I just got the Holley terminator x…..sometimes my iac will be at 100% at idle, that will obviously mess with my tps sensor, correct.?…..will this mess with my a/f as well, ?…got a tiny stumble when touching the fuel and my a/f will spike and go red, like 20 and up, I’ve seen 35….what do u think?

[kimmoline]

If I would have done this i would prolly be able to figure out my stumble on accel

My map sensor reads off the scale on the low side and high side. Is this common for a 1bar on naturally aspirated builds?

[robingibson]

I don't understand half the termonology, Learning curve is way over my head.

I was told this was plug and play. I'm only getting 4.5 miles to the gallon. It is a 440 mopar, But this isn't my first rodeo. I've built 6 hot rods, and used the Mallery Uni lite dist. Had a Chevelle that did 0-60 in 3 seconds. And got 25 MPG normal driving. This thing is idle to shit and git and no in between.
