Hey everyone,
I flashed the flex fuel tune from xxx on my nGauge and it learned the 91 octane pump gas that was in my tank at 29% alcohol. Took it down to 0 miles and filled it with California E85 (90% alcohol). When I fired it up, let it idle, took the revs up to around 1700rpm then when it hit 40%, I drove and babied it till it flagged the Alch content. It only read 69% alcohol. It ran like crap and threw 2 running rich codes. So I flashed the E85 tune and then reflashed the flex fuel tune to see what it would read after a refill of E85. The highest it will read in the flex fuel tune is 76% alcohol.
Has anyone ran into this problem? Am I doing something wrong?
Why is 91 pump gas reading 29% alcohol?
I'd like a flex fuel tune that actually works. Not just something to get me by when switching to and from gas / E85.
I'm waiting for the final E85 tune revision from xxx but I'd like to figure out what the heck's going on with the flex fuel tune.
I'm getting no response from xxx.
The 1st E85 tune was pretty much dialed. Waiting on the final.
The 91 tune is also dialed after 1 revision.
I don't like to throw anyone under the bus but I'm not too impressed with the communication from xxx.
I'm about to toss it and jump ship to the competitor.
