Well, I got the new one in and running tonight. As to be expected, it doesnt run perfectly. I set the timing to 12 and fiddled with the IAB and throttle stop a little, but only spent about 15min on it before retiring for the night. I have a Crane 2031 cam and dont know if my idle is too low for it(600-700 like stock). I suppose the computer could need time to learn seeing as how its been without power for 2 weeks. Any recommendations?
