Hondata

So you can actually adjust the idle with said adjustment screws and it would conflict with the ECU's program? That's basically what I'm trying to figure out here.

Will the Hondata unit compensate for adjustment screws such as the idle adjustment screw and throttle stop screw, if they have been messed with?

A while before I upgraded to the Hondata system, I was instructed to adjust those two screws to get the car to idle properly, and after doing so, I ...

Wow. Ok, so I was given tons of incorrect information by those guys. I need to find a shop that deals in imports instead of muscle cars, I guess. :roll:

Man, I would hope nothing is going wrong with the ECU itself, seeing as how it is a Hondata ECU. I did have one that I bought just for this purpose, and it turned out that that one didn't work, so they had one shipped from Hondata that has their special black paintjob and red logo on it. I don't ...

I was told that all but 4 sensors were turned off, or ignored rather, by the Hondata ECU. Anyone know which ones are still on?

The only ones I can figure that are being watched are the MAP, TPS, O2 sensors. That still leaves one more unaccounted for even if my 3 guesses are right.

I recently had an incident where I ran out of gas and had to go get a can and fuel, and consequently their pumps were down, all but regular. I chanced it knowing that my Hondata was tuned for 92 octane, and only got a few gallons. While driving it back to the gas station, curiosity got the better ...

Ok, thanks! I'll get the paperclip in the car asap. So, if it is one of those other problems you mentioned and was installed that way, then would the dealers be responsible for fixing that?

I don't know. It came on the other day driving into work, so I take it straight to Carb Conn to have them hook up a scanner, and they inform me that they can't just hook it up really quick like a normal scanner. They would have to take the chip out of the ECU and plug it into a eprom reader.

Now ...

Does anyone know what happens to the funcionality of the engine if your EGR Valve goes bad?
I'm still trying to chase this surging problem down and have replaced just about everything except the EGR, TPS and MAP sensors.

Way back a few years ago, I did a complete head package install from Gude ...
