Summary: SUBJECT REGARDING ECM REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES FOR VEHICLES WITH REPROGRAMMABLE ECMS. *TT

Ok.... a what? REPROGRAMMABLE ECM? oh really... Auto fuel cutoff fix maybe?

btw, on a side note.. I really am having a hard time replicating fuel cutoff (I was going to make a vid for you guys that think it doesnt exist) these days after I got the new TCM. Not sure thats related, but I tried to get it to buck over a hill at 38mph last week and it wouldnt. It used to. hmmm

 

Reprogrammable ECM's?!?!?!? I wonder if we can get rid of the 6200 rpm shift point? What if we tweaked the fuel mapping? Hmmmm............

Thanks for the info Tim!

 

Has anybody checked on this with the dealer? I read another post (unrelated) which stated something was tweaked and it increased HP by 50. Just curious if this is the same.

I'm going to run by the dealer and inquire about this.

 

I read the same post too, but remember that just because you read it on the internet doesn't make it true!
