Winter blend gas and E/85

Here is what he said
Build a new configuration file. That one is causing certain pids to read incorrectly.

You really need to log with your laptop using the X4 as a pass thru.

I started the same way trying to use the handheld only but it just doesn't have the processing power to handle the data requirements of a 35 pid config file.

The data and resulting tune updates will be better and by using the pid limited handheld alone you will hit the power wall much faster because Torrie won't have all the necessary data to crank it up safely.

The learning curve seems steep at first but once you get the hang of it, its pretty simple. Livelink is actually a pretty powerful tool. I'm always willing to text, email. or even jump on the phone with you to walk you through it if necessary.

FoMoCoSHO knows his way around date logging with the x4.  He's helped me several times.

I'm getting there but I must give credit where its due. AJPturbo has been a huge help to me, not only enhancing my interaction with the device and software but especially with reading and understanding logs and showing me different ways of looking at the data.

ok got the new config file, used my laptop instead of just the tuner. i just found out you could log through the computer with better results yesterday. Thanks for your help,this log looks good to me fuel pressure wise, didnt look at the kr readings though. this log was with about an e18 mixture. i put the corn in about 4 pm today, so i dont know if the car realizes the fuel is even different yet. i am familiar with most of the tuning stuff, i have a 93 mustang gt i use the same laptop for with a moates quarterhorse and binary editor. i still have someone do the actual tuning but i ask alot of questions because i like to have some idea of what is going on.
 
Its all about lending a helping hand when its needed the most,great stuff FoMoCoSHO.  Z    :clap2: :clap2:

When you are logging, I'd try to find a nice highway on ramp you can go WOT 1st -3rd or as fast as your stomach can tolerate. I typically go after 9 when the light traffic makes getting a clear stretch more probable. Your log showed a little knock spike but it looked to me like lift knock which seems to be a somewhat common occurrence.  Right before it starts it looks like you romped it, let off and got right back on it for a brief time and lifted completely where the 2.75 spike occurred. I've seen that before when making fast transitions between WOT and decel fuel cutoff back into WOT.

Fuel looks good.

Glad you got it figured out and got Torrie some usable data.

Since I don't drive a lot currently I usually drive a day or 2 monitoring with Torque before I pull another log so the adaptives can do their thing.

I have a tiny bit of lift knock and my tranny is giving me some false KR on WOT downshifts I need to get resolved.

Easiest thing to try may be a softer downshift, FoMoCo?  You are running Amsoil in the trans already, right?

Yes and yes. I'm not sure softer is the exact answer, just a different pressure. It has already been adjusted and its much better. But not gone.
 
I'm getting mysterious lift KR on my new race tune also...I'm thinking it has something to do with the extra fueling to accommodate the more power coming to an abrupt halt than the trans...but I could be wrong...Seeing lift KR from 2.5 - 3.8

Well I have an hour long drive to the track so maybe my adaptives can adapt by the time I get there. I am going to take my laptop and log the runs

You will be good.

Logs at the track are safest and best.....
