**** I posted this in the tech section also*********
So my car start giving me some fits recently. I noticed that under hard acceleration it would fall on it's face at 3000 RPM. This indicated an issue with the Anderson PMS stand alone feature which I currently have set to come on at 30% throttle and 3000 RPM. Sure enough, once I disabled the stand alone it stopped falling on its face. However, with the standalone turned off the car is running off the stock EEC tune and not my custom tune. I did some fooling around and it seems like my TPS had taken a dump.. easy enough I thought.. I put a different TPS that I had sitting around on. Well that didn't fix it and now my damm idle is all over the place. I tried to set base idle, but with no luck. So I think that by the original TPS taking a dump it threw the PMS outta whack and now I can't seem to get it configured correctly. If anyone can offer some help, or insight, I would greatly appreciate it. I was working on this crap all afternoon with no luck. Thanks....

yea... i had a tune done to my car then tried to adjust the idle down on the tps 50 rpms or so, and it messed up everything haha, when its tuned it is set to be at a certain rpm at idle i guess... if ur not at that exact rpm it might be messing it up. thats what happened to me. and u are adjusting the volts??
