    Check your TPS setting

    I had failed to do this thinking that it was running ok..... easy to do. Checked mine this morning and it was at .76 I was easily able to adjust it to .96 and with that, my timing fell into the range it was supposed to be in. It was off quite a bit before the adjustment. Now to powertune, new plugs, then run it. Wish me luck.

    Make sure and take the time to check the TPS, seems worth the little time it takes.

    Glad you were able to get that set up properly.... now to get it to the river and RUN IT HARD to clear out some of that nasty gunk the Power Tune helped to set loose.

    River looks like it is on a slow drop with rain on its way tonight. I will go by and look at it, but with all the years I have boated on that river, I have seen some huge trees and many man made objects floating just under the surface of that river... Might be wise to wait until it is down to or close to pool stage.
