Fuel leans out when outside temps drop.
I thought high temp leaned cars out. When the temps drop into the 70's my car starts running lean, and all over the place?????
I would adjust it. But when the temps are back to 90's in the afternoons it runs great??????
I'm still new to this MS, what do I need to adjust and the retard version please.

I'm interested too. Mine does the same thing, but on a smaller scale.
FWIW, hot air has less mass oxygen per unit volume. So if fuel stayed constant, cold air= more oxygen, hot air = less oxygen.
I'm sure MS is somehow supposed to adjust for IAT, right? I wonder if this is adjustable. I know warm up enrichment is. I guess the IATcorrecting for VE tables is a fixed table that's not adjustable?

Are you running the appropriate firmware? Meaning fw with the correct easy therm values? Meaning if no AFM are you running the correct values for GM IAT? and vice versa
I bet it has to do with your AIT corrections table.... Check under coolant based air-density corrections...I only correct above 90*F AIT, I bet you have them on almost all temps.
but unless he made some changes to the RPM range in which it's active it would only apply to idle. Or am I not remembering the default settings correctly? Or is he not talking about driving even, just idling?
That's what I am guessing too - if it has the wrong firmware loaded, your corrections will be off.
I should have the correct firmware. And I'm running 9093 without AFM. I have not changed anything besides O2 sensor to wideband, and VE values.
I quess I need to check the air density correction values. I have never messed with them.
The car starts out idling lean to rich. And when I start to drive, the afr's are back and forth.
After warm up, Idle is rich but works, cruise is high, like a full point higher. Like 15-16 and bumping 17 sometimes.
But as soon as the outside temps hit the 90's, cruise is back to perfect. Never over 14.3- 14.7 everyonce in awhile bumps 15. for a blink of the eye.
Thanks,
Any ideas are appreciated.

Try reloading the firmware, just in case you have the wrong one.
The thing that gets me is,
my tabs gray out, and when I open new tabs and close them out, the dual ve and spark like to stay gray for no reason.
I wounder if the overboost is what is shutting my car off at 9psi. Or is that only for ebc?
Many of these things stay gray if not enabled - for example, normally an MSPNP isn't set up for dual table code. Could you post your MSQ?

Ok. Also list exactly what's grayed out. Sometimes MegaTune fails to check and makes a table available that you will not actually be using.
