fuel management question.
Ok on my 07 FLHTC i first got the HD to richen my A/F mixture because it was giving me a code , so after that my gas mileage went from around 50mpg to 46-47mpg. I thought it was ok. Then i got the AC and pipes and a HD stage one download, bike rank better but so.so...mileage went to about 43-45 mpg. then i got a Fuelmoto premapped PCIII and bike runs great but my mileage went to 38-40 mpg...I would like to understand this a bit better and in all fairness i havent got another map from Jamie yet... they have worked with me on som minor issues...They are great to work with...Anyway. What i want to know is... When you install the PCIII does it eliminate all the stuff that HD did like the increase in A/F ratio and the Stage 1 download? the reason i ask that is my rear cylinder cut off still works and they installed this at the Stage 1 ...Could it be that my bike is running too rich even for the map Jamie gave me?... I don't quite understand all the workings of this PCIII ...does it bypass all the ECM of my bike or just parts of it...
Thank you for any explanation...

Yes. When they put in your download it richened it up, then when you put on your PC with the MAP it was a MAP for a stock ECM bike, so the PC didn't know it had the download in it, so it richened it up more. I would get your ECM flashed back to stock and you should be all set, better performance and your mileage should improve.
