What Time Should I Run

[silverchris]

Thinks that's bad....get a look a my chart. When I give it heaps I can feel every little peak and trough on that graph. It's got plenty of pull, but it surges and misfires near the max revs (before the rev limited cuts in that is).

Very disappointed. Tuner tells me I probably need new spark plugs, despite the fact he re-gapped them to CAPA's recommendations and they've only done 60,000km and Ford say they should do 100,000km.

Getting the tune re-done tomorrow. Hopefully I will get a better result or I'll be looking for a new tuner and outing this one for being a dud.

Try some motorcraft BF Typhoon plugs gaped to the capa recommendation (.78mm) & you maybe needing a fuel filter if you havn't allready.Stock fuel pump should be ok at that power level.

It's not allways the tuner at falt (sometimes it is) as preperation plays a major part.

Has this tuner got much of a back ground with the Advantage 3 software? Maybe you could suggest the Nizpro tuners courses.

Good luck with it.

Yeah, hard to believe, but it is. And it took 7 attempts to get it there!

Put new plugs in it, the ones Muzza sugested... I put new ones in mine last weekend ( old ones have done 22k and were fairly black, crusty and red speckled thanks to occy booster ) BIG improvment with the new ones. It was breaking up a bit but its very smooth now

[mickey_gee]

I added the plugs Muzza suggested and it made a difference. No misfires or unexpacted bad stuff now

I have just had my car tuned. I am happy with the result but I would like another opinion with the dyno printout. Is this curve normal. Boost apparently is at 12 psi and Im not sure what torque is at.

I thought it was one contiuous smooth curve like this, but hey I dont know
