Start reading. When you have a clue, then ask the question. Most likely, no one will help you unless you at least try to help yourself first.

I've been doing this for 2 months and I'm still grasping at straws. It's not one of those things that you can learn in a few days.

speak for yourself.
I am trying but have no clue how to read it. If you have a remark like that then its best to keep that to yourself, dont speak for others.

I tell ya what, when you go get a job or start a new project on your own no matter what it is dont expect any help what soever or even someone to show you how or what direction to go in. Just do it on your own and when you have a clue then ask a question. YEAH RIGHT!
you wouldnt keep a job for a day or even continue any sort of project unless you HAVE A CLUE what to do..
THINK ABOUT IT!

thanks for your input.........no help at all.

So, you must have a job where you don't have to think for yourself? I guess employers don't hire based on problem solving skills anymore.

Anyway, what issues are you having problems with? Maybe I can help shed some light.

Wishmaster, I wished I could help. I have done some datalogging, but I am still trying to figure it all out. This board is really not the place to find answers if you are a newbie. The newbies are pretty much ignored in the DIY board. Few people here are willing to help. Understanding the results from WinALDL isn't something that you can sit down and figure out, although the ALMIGHTY NAPE seems to be able to. You can send the file to me and I can look at it and give you what little information I can about it.

Not true. In fact, if you search, you will find a wealth of information about just about anything EFI related. Once you search and learn the basics for yourself, then you are probably intelligent enough to ask a meaningful question.

Most certainly NOT true. I learned from Step 1 on this board. I even asked badly off-topic questions that were still answered. When I had trouble a few weeks aga with an ECM staying in LHM...guess what...I figured it out with LOTS of help from the senior members of the DIY PROM board.

:werd: What jeep guy said is right. Your problem is your just asking some one to type out everything there is to know about data logging and tuning your car at once. No one has the time to do that. Thats why there isn't a step by step tuning article sticky. You need to rephrase your question into something more specific. Like what does BLM mean, why doesn't the O2 quite moving, what does IAC stand for, things like that. You'll get answers, but the best place to find those are with the search button. Type in BLM and see what comes up. There is a steep learning curve getting into chip burning you can't expect to fall into it, unfortunately that curve is on an upward slope, you'll have to climb.
