Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
It's completely worth it......you won't regret it. Look at it this way: Any enthusiasts that has a carb learns how to adjust the jets and spark to get his car running properly. He doesn't take to a shop every time it starts running rich or lean.
EFI guys have to learn to do the same....it's all part of the fun!

Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
The Autoprom allows you to make changes while the car is still running (emulating), rather than having to burn a chip and then start the car again. So yes, it does everything you need.
I just burn my chips with the Burn2.....it's all based on your preference or needs.

Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
Sigh...
The HELL they don't! I've gotten numerous people home by unplugging the maf and forcing the car into limp home mode. Hell, some of them don't even trigger a lamp like that for a while.
Put the 'new' MAF back in, replace your MAF relays, get a datalog, come and post it up, then bug Vader.

Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
Alright folks, just ordered the APU1 autoprom package: USB version from Moates.net and also the GP1 package arrived a few days ago. So hopefully next week I will start the process of tuning the beast. Stay tuned, hopefully I don't blow anything up.

Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
Well, I have everything hooked up and the car in my garage so I can take my sweet time with this. I really don't even know where to start. I guess I need to download a program to start with but which one? Where do I get it and how do I use it? I'm in over my head. HELP

Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
Yes you need to download the proper bin file for your engine/ecm application. You also need to download the proper definition file (adx) to be able to define the bin.
You can find both of those on the moates website, once you log on...i believe their under downloads.

Re: Crazy MAF problems!!
Start a new thread and post your questions under the DIY Prom forum, that way everyone can chime in and help you out.
Remember, this takes time and patience......but, you'll get there.

Yes, there are a ton of files there. In the DIY Prom forum, post the year/make/model/ecm# of your car and ask which bin files and xdf files work for your application. We will all chime in and help you from there....
