Mine has been long cranking since I got my first tune. If it sits for a few hours it is really long. Reminds me of not having a check valve in the system to keep the fuel rails pressurized. My Z06 does it now that there is a return style fuel system.
Pump gas and E85 are quite different, as you know. Everyone I know that's run E85 has had cold start issues (if you call a few extra crank issues), or just starting in general...myself included. Doesn't really bother me. I certainly wouldn't want my tune dumping in a bunch of extra fuel just to start it.
Curious to know what kind of plug gap you are running with your setup. E85 is such a slow burning fuel maybe close the gap even further? What kind of idle rpm? Maybe a small bump in idle rpm could help?
Coming from a guy that runs a E85 "toy" car, that can see any temp here in Kansas ranging from -10 degrees to 110 degrees,
The car is basically adding cranking fuel the entire time its cranking, eventually it has enough to "light off" and fire. (Or it has to much, and it finally cleans up enough to light)
I think thats the normal, people will deal with the few extra cranks, for all the awesome benefits of what the fuel brings to the table.
Plug gap on E85 won't matter. Boost really is your dictator of the gap.
Thats tuning, itll smooth out with revisions. Mine does an idle dip too. Brooks has been rather busy lately it seems.
I haven't gotten a revision since April 25. I sent him a new log on Sunday, still haven't gotten anything back.
I meant, the success of your Procharger install has everyone going to him for tunes.
Ohh, lol. Well my tune is still far from done, let's put it this way. It was a waiting game on HPTuners to get the right parameters available. I'll bet some of you guys get yours finished before I do lol.
