Instructions for getting a data log from the FiTech site:
Data Logging:
Data logging is a useful tool for diagnoses and tuning. It allows you to check how the many functions the system can read and go through them point by point. This allows for exact adjustments to be made
When the vehicle is running go onto the dashboard screen and press the joystick on the right of the screen IN and a message will pop up saying Data Log On. Now you will drive the car and get it to have the issue you are having. Once you finish the drive you will press the button again and this will save the data log. Then you can turn the vehicle off and wait 15 seconds for the data on the dashboard to go black. Once this happens you can take the handheld to your PC and plug in the USB cable and handheld. The handheld will light up with three menu options, USB mass storage is at the top, select this. You should see a prompt on your PC to open the handheld folder, if not go to My Computer and you should see a removable drive, select it. Once the handheld folders come up on screen find the folder labeled log_file. Select this folder and inside you should see several files inside that say Dashboard, you can click on these and they will bring up an Excel file showing the data you have recorded. You can also copy and paste these files and send them to our technicians to look at as well.
Yes, I actually found this today and emailed myself a few hours ago. Thanks though for the reply.
Well, we made it! My cigarette lighter is not working, so I couldn't record the video, but I am collecting the log from the EFI, so I'll see what that looks like. It sure does like giving it gas to get on the hwy, and hwy driving! Cam really wakes up about 3000 rpm. Now I can concentrate more on the body and paint. Got all the cracks fixed. I'll have to paint after summer, due to the heat, unless by some miracle Tucson suddenly gets a cool spell. It seemed to run better on the street the more I drove it. It doesn't stall out at all, like it used to before I replaced the TPS sensor, and lights up really nice off idle. Wish I could have recorded the video for the merge on the hwy from Montgomer's, but I'll have to fix my cigarette lighter power. Unbelievable power off the line, when you give it a little gas. I was at about 1/2 throttle and smoked them to 40 mi/hr speed limit on the street. I'm very happy with how it's progressing.
Uploaded files:- You need to login to have access to uploads.
Glad it is working out. Got your email, but file won't download. Keep driving it and let it tune.
Whaaaaat? You would think in the 21st century we could send 1/2 MB file to someone. What's up with that?
Got it to open. Coolant never reaches 170 degrees. Cannot do any tuning until that is fixed. Do you have a thermostat in the motor?
Never mind, didn't look far enough. Coolant does get up to temperature. Please start datalog after car is up to operating temp.
I need to see a datalog of engine idling at temp. Nothing more than 30 seconds.
Sure, I can do that tomorrow.
Got the file. Looks pretty good.
Need to bring down your IAC steps. With engine off, turn the idle screw 1/2 turn clockwise. Cycle the key to on and verify TPS is 0%. Start engine. At operating temperature, your IAC steps should be below 10. Your camshaft looks pretty radical, judging from Vacuum, look for IAC steps below 15. Repeat if necessary until the steps are within range.
Getting the IAC set can help the surging idle.
We should also get a plug read after idle.
Thanks so much for your help Austin, I'll keep you posted.
