Yep I have been asking questions in regards to automatic transmission seeing as I can only work on it when the guy is here. And been trying to get all the info I can.

It wouldn't be a fouled plug would it? I understand that my mpg will suffer but I wasn't expecting this much.

I got 140miles to one tank of gas last week. Yes I idled alittle more then normal... but driving was rather slow. Only got on it if I remember 3-5 times. 10ish mpg seems off especially under very very light driving. I may have to check these plugs sometime. I have 24k on the odometer now.

Send me you tune, Ill look over it.
REDFOCZ@hotmail.com


But yeah Ill, the guy I am tuning aswell is getting the Misfire code but only when he is bounching of the revlimiter because of the tune. So I have a feeling that when we get the tune working the misfire will not come back.

You might want to disable the dynamic airflow while tuning the MAF and use a customer pid logging the LTFT's and STFT's and getting the average bettween both the use a paste special by half a %. This will get the fuel trims close then when you have finshed tuning the MAF re-enable the Dynamic Airflow settings. This works wounders on the cars I have been tuning latley.

illmatics, your in new york eh... im thinking about getting a tune done so that I can get better imporvment but most importantly getting better MPG, how much do you think it would cost, and if you don't do that kinda thing, what would it usually cost?

All I have right now is a CAI from rebel, not looking to add too much more other then the gmpp exhaust as soon as the money comes, but im getting garbage MPG ratings, im at like 14l/100km and it's not being driven at WOT all the time, only here and there. Also, the performance is lacking, its an auto and it's just being shitty, my girlfriend lives in New York and I was going to be coming down in the area with the balt in a little while, only reason im asking
