| Anybody tuning these guys? | Tue Oct 17, 2017 4:45 pm by rauldelp | Not sure if this is the right place to post, but I'm gonna go ahead anyway.
I recently put the TBI back together with the 14lb fuel regulator spring (For the horsepowers, you see).
As you guys could've seen a few miles away or smelled anyhow, the car ran really, really, REALLY rich. 11mpg kinda rich . But it ran, so no huge worries.
I decided to get a winaldl cable, chipburner and the modern chip adapter gear from Moates, and I've started tuning.
So far, I've adjusted general things and mileage is back up to 18mpg on the highway cruising at around 75mph. Not bad. This is with the 3.23 gears too so I'm not unhappy. Best with the LT1 wagon with 2.56 gearing was 22.
I still need to add back in the highway lean spark mode as well as who knows what else to get it running as close to perfectly as it can. It's been a fun journey that's for sure. The only problem is I can't find too many folks tuning these TBI units for cars. Most of the stuff on gearhead-efi is geared towards the trucks. It's fine, I've learned a lot, but it's no fun poking around in the dark to see what the car is doing.
Anybody else here been tuning their toys? I know I could just mail order one, but this is more fun! (I think, or I like punishment )
