The tuna bought and installed mine.

Nothing wrong with the tuner or shop, let's just say he is one of the best, but maybe he got lazy this day. I feel like an idiot ringing up now cause it was done back in November.

When I start it, you can't touch the throttle or it goes off the afr (wideband) scale lean and wants to stall. Even when I'm driving and I blip the throttle, it goes lean then comes back to where it should be, it's weird because off the throttle shows like 11 afr's? I don't think this is right. The tune he did before was fine, punch it and afrs go straight to 12s then back to 11s @WOT. Nit this big lean swing then to where it should be. Has thrown a few lean/rich codes which makes me think he stuffed up somewhere

ring and talk to him, I had problems and took it back to him a few times . Taking it back to him again next Wednesday for overboosting and running rich issues, they're always willing to help mate, just ask.

Also not costing me a cent. Any fair workshop will fix the original tune if it's playing up. Lets be honest, the average tune costs around $900 which isn't cheap, the tune better be in tip top shape !

My first tune had idle issues with 80lb Siemens and starting issues used to have to crank it for ten seconds he fixed that straight away and he spent a whole 6 hrs straight sorting out the idle issue.

I never drive my car hard until it has warmed up. I normally get in the car, start her up. let her idle for 3 seconds and then put it in reverse and let it idle at normal rpm and drive out the driveway.

As mentioned before, when I got the car modded and tuned, it was really rough idle for like 10 seconds before it went away.

I took it back to MT and the changed the scaling in the tune and that worked miracles.

I do recall that before the tune sometimes I would have a rough start, but not all the time. I got my ID1000 injectors from MT.

I am wondering if this may have anything to do with the Throttle body by any chance? may need a clean up?

I had 80lb dekkas before the 1000's and they idled fine, cold or hot.

They ended up fine but it needed a whole 6 hrs to get it right.
