Thanks a ton for taking time to make these videos, its super handy for us aspiring noobs

This video is a lifesaver. I've played with these settings but was never quite satisfied with some of the settings.

The comment about reducing the acceleration enrichment from the base tune was exactly what I needed--thanks

[lordofkeebs]

great video, the acell enrich settings shoudl definitely be gone over, i always had a good bit of lag when jabbing the throttle and the culprit was acell enrich being too high.

[Aedanz]

Thanks for the help. Turned off all afterstart enrich and still ran 10:1 on cold starts.. ended up being priming pulse. Good info and video

Awesome, I am using Speeduino on a Miata, this video helped me!! Thankyou

[Favdaukar]

I input this data into my KA24E-T E85 car and it fired right up 😂..holy shit. Thanks for the tips!

Great video, so I live in the Caribbean I have a Subaru wrx with a ms3x, normally temps are like 80F how would you adjust the cold advance for that particular temp or should I say do you need to play with the cold advance.

These videos are really informative to me, could you make one for the boost controller duty table, please thanks

[jimandsarapeters]

My blown BBC with eight 48 lb (502 cc) injectors starts but dies after a few seconds. Another video I watched said to increase the fuel table by 10 to 20 % around idle and possibly lower the ASE to prevent flooding. That helped a little, but it still dies. Should I leave the fuel table and ASE alone and play with the WUE? I have not changed the WUE from the default as suggested in your video. My Required Fuel is 11.9 and the fuel table is around 45 at idle.

could you do a video covering start up crank advance and its effects...mine starts alright but id like better

[bicylindrico]

Really enjoy your videos. Are you aware of a way to prevent ignition until acquiring full sync? The initial waste spark until sync has my sequential V8 backfiring through the intake. My cams are huge with close to 30 degrees of overlap.

[steveo]

am i understanding this right? you seem to be saying wur effects the actual starting ? i was off the understanding cranking pulse gets the initial fire up, then alter wur to keep it running while cold?

[norb]

So at each key on the prime plus squirts once? Or does it only do it once until it sees the engine has entered run mode?

[bubbabrewer]

I am having trouble with my accel enrichment, when I initially hit the gas it goes dead lean the accel starts at 0 should I start somewhere else?
