My last effort - Page 7 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Remember our first conversation about cams and running a chip not set up for it....I started my 90 with cams with a chip not set up for it....could barely drive it. Eyes burning from fuel, etc

I'm kinda proud of the guys on this forum.
I'm no expert, but I believe this is going to turn out to be something simple.
Somebody could steal this car for 10K, fix it for nothing, and sell it for 20.
Hang in there Mark.

Ah, boy. I know how you feel. Been there a couple times at different times myself! But, as Pete told me, once it is back the way you want it and you whack it, you'll forget all the frustration and fall in love all over again. DAYAM IF HE WASN'T RIGHT (as he usually is

)

Lee-Came home today to find your chip in the mail..Weather is supposed to be pretty foul here in NJ tomorrow but I'll have it in the car by Wed..I'll drive around for a week with it and keep you updated on what I get..

Paul- I "whack it now" and love every minute of it..The car doesn't have a problem moving...Just smoking and eatin NGK TR551X plugs after a few hundred miles..They don't come cheap..I recently put some cheap copper Autolites in until I figure it out..Pete was nice enough to send me his #..I'm really hoping I can hold out on calling him as that means I can't get to the bottom of it..Selling it is still on the table if I can't fix it..I'm gonna drive around with Lee's chip for a few days and monitor idle/oil consumption patterns..Stay tuned..

...now how does the USPS get that chip to NJ in one day and I mailed out some videos to NM and MI and it took over 3...all mailed 1st class?

Good luck!

Hey Lee-Dont want to get excited to soon but my car seems to love your chip..The hunting idle has pretty much dissappeared..But best of all--- no tailpipe smoke.Is the chip tuned for a car with or without secondarys?

efnfast · 04-16-2014

Wouldn't that be great??

LGAFF · 04-16-2014

For a car with secondaries

LGAFF · 04-16-2014
