Did anyone else hear weird noises coming from the engine bay? Kind of like a squeaky rattle?

I am saying that if you mess with the two lines that do not go to the oil filler, you will generate a problem, it creates a huge vacuum leak. Those two need to be plumbed back to the air intake, the oil filler one can likely got to atmosphere.

Why would you want to route the other two lines to the catch can to begin with? Neither one of them has the chance to blow gunk into the intake so there is no point in doing that.

From what I can tell, the line other than the injectors easily can pump oil if the check valve failed. There were several posts that talked about mystery oil that did not look like it came from the fill tube. Seemed like a good idea at the time. I still like the idea, but will plumb all three to the intake. From what I can tell, the fumes and garbage from the crank case will just get sucked straight into the rotors through the oil injector lines. And, if the valve sticks on the feed line, I am still good.

Surprisingly productive day.
74 unique calibrations generated.

Lets do it again on Thursday.

I think I am going to incorporate an hour break at 1:00pm, though. lol

I was very impressed and satisfied with today. I was able to get 4 calibrations back today. Two of which the turn around was less than 10 minutes. I also hope to finish up Thursday. I hope this tuning method works well for you Jeff, it sure seemed very productive from the customer side of things.

I'll be on board for Thursday's deal so hopefully Jeff will be able to spend more time doing calibrations and less time chatting with me on google.

It was my fault because I kept asking him whether or not the AP can mask a CEL.

Was able to get a calibration done today, and I felt actually communicating with Jeff was much more enjoyable from a customer stand point. Especially the issue I encountered with AP Manager 2.0.1.3 not seeming to exist for me. Thank you for being patient.

Will hopefully get another one done Thursday!

Just did my WOT runs (yay insomnia.) I started at 2000rpm in 2nd gear, rather than 3000rpm. Did 3rd gear correctly. I assume that's okay? Anyone know?

It shouldn't make any relevant difference but i guess that following the rules makes things easier for Jeff.
I mean, individually each small mistake doesn't take much time to be solved but what if everybody did something different?

I can't speak though, i'm the king of screwing the logs up somehow.

It would be far more efficient to use existing threads. Like, all of them. Especially the milky dipstick, ebay performance chip, flooded my 8, and mpg threads.








In other news, have you heard about the owner getting failed on his safety inspection because his taillight fluid level was too low?
