reading logs

[kluke15]

so ive been trying to learn how to read datalogs to be able to tell what is going on with my car but for the life of me i have no idea what im looking at and wondering if anyone would be willing to check it out and see if it would be worth paying lund to check them out. any help is greatly appreciated. im really just interested in the postive knock values and if anyone sees any reason for it or if it looks real or false.

If you are looking to change something, definitely go to an experienced tuner. I assume this is from the nguage? It looks different than my SCT logs.

yeah its from an n gauge, tuned by lund, but they charge now to look at them. my issue is im getting a little knock at times and trying to learn if its real or not. i also have a low rpm tick like the bbq tick that im trying to figure out if anything in my logs will tell me. i just saved it as an excel but other than that i have no idea how to look or read them. i did download livelink or whatever but that is confusing to read too.

I see your knock. Odd that it is in a mid rpm level, yet not in a lot of load or pedal input. This could be a transitional area in the mapping. That sort of knock doesn't last very long though. Do you know what the timing abbreviation is? This may be better to discuss with Lund, if you are too concerned. I can usually pick out certain details, but I don't know what is typical for the engine.

im pretty sure its labeled saftot. i could be wrong tho. and i always thought the knock was weird for the circumstances. im just trying to understand it and make sure everything a ok

Try to run some unleaded 100 octane if you can get it. If you still have knock, it's almost certainly false.

tried dumping some torco in the other day and it wouldnt actually go in the tank, just spilled out so i gotta get a mini tank filled with gas and torco and put that in

Lol. You have a white funnel in the trunk to work the capless filler.

Use the white plastic funnel that's in the trunk to pour it in. The capless fill is stingy about what it lets in.

Create an account on datazap.me, and upload the excel there. Much easier to read.
