    J/K there are no boobs....


    I usually dont drive my car much in the winter so I have never messed with the cold start issue but have been feeling the urge lately. Its always had problems cold starting on days when the temp gets down to the 30* area and Im finally gonna mess with it. I just have no clue where to tinker (obviously the startup AFR section though).

    Decay? Startup? initial? I just have it at stock 2002 settings right now...

    I remember playing with it some a while back but never had much change in results and never worried about it due to not driving it too often in the cold.

    Couldn really find much on HPTuners (for the V6 guys anyway) either.

    Thanks,
    Jarred

    Been there. Fixed that. 100% have it down to a science and have successfully fixed in on 3 e85 cars now. Pretty sure this method should work reguardless of what way you tuned for e85 originally. http://www.grandprixforums.net/threa...ling-questions

    Probably because the forum doesn't like 3 letter searches.

    And where is the hate button? I clicked for the boobs and there are none.

    Try searching google instead and then tag
    site:grandprixforums.net
    Onto the end of the search. Much much better search engine than the built in one.

    Any idea how to convert a hpt file to a bin in order to use the tiny tuner without having DHP?

    Um.. "i have no idea , that isnt possible, its "really hard", "wink"".

    Also it is pretty easy to just start over again and import your changes over to the new file.

    Can you enlighten me? Im not worried I have to start over as I haven really changed much on my current setup other than tranny and injector tables...

    Also, Im not a computer guy so excuse my ignorance...
