fan temp enable.
Maybe the TCC enable threshold
Charcoal canister enable threshold
EGR
DFCO

You need to drive the car and see how the above seem.
You maybe fine, but, you might be close enough to the normal enable temps to have the engine chuggle between on and off on between some of them.

I know this is an old thread but I am trying to adjust for a lower t-stat as well. I converted to tpi and have only one fan so is fan 1 the constant I want to change? also what is DFCO? finally what is the conversion eq. for C* to F* the super $8D ecu uses C* for it's values.

Conversion btw °F and °C involves basic elementary school math.

°C = (°F - 32) / 1.8
°F = °C * 1.8 + 32

°C °F
0 32
5 41
10 50
15 59
20 68
25 77
30 86
35 95
40 104
45 113
50 122
55 131
60 140
65 149
70 158
75 167
80 176
85 185
90 194
95 203
100 212
105 221
110 230
115 239
120 248
125 257
130 266

So for every 5°C increase, there is 9°F increase. Or for everz 10°C increase, there is corresponding 18°F increase.

Hope this helps.
Lou
