Default Lean Hot Start

Been a while sine i bugged you guys. Anyways let say i stop off to a store then try to start it 10-20 minutes later the engine will idle badly as for unknown reason it would run at 17-18 a/f.

i give it a bit gas or start driving, the a/f values are fine. 5 minutes into the trip my idle is back to normal at 14-15 a/f.

The engine also takes 5-6 seconds of cranking to start in hot/cold weather, hot/cold start, any ideas?

the cranking in weather is your cranking fuel table being off and possibly that area of the fuel map being off.

you have to get it just right or it will be a complete bitch.


The lean hot restart I'm not sure about. what are your fuel enrichment per coolant temp tables looking like?

These numbers are referenced from coolant based iat corrections or just the ASE settings themselves? Cause I still have my iat corrections based on air density?

if you can get a wideband reading during cranking, 10:1 is pretty good.

i tried the 550/800 x your number.. no luck. I did bump up the idle throttle position a bit though since few weeks ago i ended up closing the manual screw.

well it still sounds like its coming out of an exorcism.

you can see where i changed the values from 20 to 45 using the 550/800 x y8s values. no luck :(

So today i decided to pull some timing from cranking since i felt it was too much. It was at 10 degrees i pulled it to 3 degrees (random pick), i also pulled the maximum iac down to 92 from 100. Turned the key and it started like stock.

Same for me using MS-1. Cold starting is still sometimes a little off, but cranking timing set between 4-6 degrees and it turns over much better in cold temps.
