Default VE1 table... my quest with the unknown

epic stupidity on my end. I opened up my tune. Went to "save tune as" and created a new tune. Then went to VE1 and instead of reading or taking my time i entered 130 instead of 1.3 to scale my table. So needless to say I maxed out my table. I didn't see the undo button, so i went to "recent projects" and opened my startup project. However it shows the maxed fuel table. So... Am i stuck until Reverant responds?

The VE3 table is still there but it seems that everything is is way smaller than it should be. Suggestions? Help? Advice? I am sitting in the garage hoping I can fire this car up tonight, set timing and drive home.

Sorry for the pics... No wifi in the garage.

VE1



VE3 - does this just look a 0.1 off? Think rev did an idiot failsafe on this table?

Glad you got it figured out. Protip: always save backups.

And if that's the base map, you'll need to re-tune most of it anyway, so even if it was off by .1 or even 1, it wouldn't matter much.

Thanks. I thought I had saved it correctly. I am still not 100% sure what I did wrong with saving it. Wouldn't I just "save tune as" if I wanted to make adjustments to the fuel table... Allowing me to revert to a previous table when I make changes I don't like?

Noob edit - doesn't the burn button burn the table to the ECU? I dont have to power cycle it like we do on the subies do I?

So do I have to start a new project if I want tables I can go back to? Vs just saving tune as and using a new name?

Project is always the same. Tunes you can save as much as you want. if you want to revert back, just "open tune" and load it up

If you wanna save your fuel table, click the export table button. Then save it as "5/8 fuel table" or something like that. Then **** with it all you want. If you don't like your changes, you can load just the fuel table by clicking the import table button, and clicking on the .table file you saved earlier.

Perfect, thanks.


So this is my idle right now. It seems very high for numbers. Am I crazy? This is what I had to add to get it to about 14.1 on my UEGO. My RPMS seem super high. Around 1500.

thank you. I will have to go home tonight and do some research on what I should have it set at. I guess the Rev settings aren't lining up with what I have in the car.

You have to run req fuel 30% higher than pump gas to accommodate the corn
Start reading up on tuning MS

Oh. So my mistake was adjusting the 30% on the VE1 table. I should have changed the req fuel from 2.70 to 2.78? (2.70 x 1.03 = 2.781)

1.3 not 1.03

step1 is adjusting req fuel
step2 is adjusting the ve table
both will have to be done
also have you put in the dead times, voltage compensation, etc? for the injectors

Damnit, math... 30%. I am retarded. I feel ok about the req fuel and VE1 table then. I will read up on the other stuff prior to my next free night to try this again.
