In Megatune it is second from the bottom in the "Advanced" tab. Its called "coolant-Related Air Density" Once it is open the settings tab will let you change it from coolant related to IAT sensor related. Good luck, I am still stumped...........

So what you're lookin at is me putting the results of 5 datalogs into a database and pulling out some aggregate data. I added a linear regression to the corrected pulse widths column in excel and got a slope of 0.008 so basically flat.. Shouldn't that mean that the O2 (rightmost column) jumps down considerably even though it should not?
I guess i'm baack to my original thoughtt that the airdenfactor is just too agressive (even though it seems to be right with respect to the formulas), and i should just reduce its effects??

Not to be outdone I went to the After Start Enrichment Data on my Current MSQ and found the following settings.....
Note that I have never changed any of the settings so this is a big WTF ! for me
Bold numbers are what the settings should be as per the Base tune MSQ that came with the PnP MS.
Bold are the base tune settings
ASE Timer: SEC
ASE Total Time: 60 30
ASE Mode: Fixed then Decay
Map Mode during ASE: Fixed Map
Use Fixed ASE/MAP when collant temp below: 11 degrees 80 degrees
Fixed ASE/MAP Time Period: 47 5
Fixed MAP value 58 80
Right column are the base MSQ settings
After Start Enrichment Table %
47 55
51 50
51 45
50 40
50 35
51 30
55 25
56 20
What do you guys think ?

poobs, i would just use the base MS settings and then adjust from there.
For my part, i've devised an interesting experiment which i think conclusively proves SOMETHING.
The method for my test was to create set IAT correction to 100% for all temps, then to zero in the MS's idea of the right temperature by setting the following values (for example)
Temp / Enrichment
15 100
16 50
40 50
41 100
If the car starts to stutter, you know the MS's idea of IAT is between 16 and 40...
At 28 degrees displayed temperature, the car would stutter and lean out if I set the enrichment to 50% at 11 degrees, NOT 28 degrees..
I sat in the car for half an hour as the IATs slowly rose, and wrote down a table of the temps displayed vs. the temps entered into the IAT table which caused the lean condition.
I was able to record over a 22 degree range, that the difference between the displayed temperature and the megasquirt's idea of the correct temperature was off by 17 or 18 degrees..
1st column -- Temp displayed by Megatune (more or less correct i think..)
2nd column -- lower bound temp of 50% enrichment area in IAT corr. table
3rd column -- difference between the two.
FWIW - Weather.com says 30 degrees.

47 29 18
47 30 17
48 31 17
49 32 17
50 33 17
So the question is -- how do i correct it?
EDIT: Would this be explained if I had this built to be used with AFM but then switched to no-AFM? I never re-flashed after the change..

What screen shows these numbers ?
Temp / Enrichment
15 100
16 50
40 50
41 100
Is it the after start enrichment screen ?
My intake and coolant temperatures seem to follow a seaprate remote thermometer and the dash mounted coolant temp gauge
Are you using the correct firm ware ?
The firmware for the GM IAT has changes to accomodate for the GM sensor...
Did you contact DIY with your findings on the temperature discrepancies ?
