Changed to the Gen 111 up grade on Tuesday. Did the set up and the bike would not start. Emailed thunder max and was told to roll on the throttle when cranking and it started but would not idle and ran very rough. Thunder max said to change the TAC from 61 to 85. Did that and still no start unless I rolled on the throttle. Did a data collection and sent it to support. Haven't heard back from them yet. When I install the stock ECM it starts and runs fine. Any ideas? TIA...06 electra glide with 65,000 miles...

Afr
I've actually had zero ping at this point. As mentioned earlier, I've been gradually advancing the timing and the bike seem to run a little better each time. I'm going to keep adding a degree or two between rides until I start to hear some ping and the back it down three degree.
I Play with my AFRs all the time for mileage and heat management. In the winter and on long rides I run pretty lean at 14.3 AFR for better gas mileage. I add fuel during the summer and when I know I'll be riding in heavy stop and go traffic like at bike Week. 13.5 AFR seems to keep the heat monster away a little longer.

Andrews 48H/TC 96/2-1 exhaust
Hi folks,
Asking if anyone has a working MAP for a 96 w/ stock heads/compression and Andrews 48H they are willing to share? Also running 2-1 exhaust, but not too worried about that as I know it will tune around it. I have been trying to tune this myself and have not been able to get rid of the flat acceleration I am getting from 2000-2500; the engine also feels very rough decelerating from 2000 down to idle; have gotten some help from Zippers, but still same problem exists...getting frustrated, but really want to make these cams work as I have read so many others having good experiences.

Just installed Tmax the other day, loving it so far, but does anyone else have a hesitation when shifting?
Like I get on it, I shift (doesn't matter if its a power shift or a regular), and then I get back on it and theres a slight delay in when the engine kicks back in. Whats the cure for this? I haven't reached out to zippers yet - haven't found this answer online or in the help pdfs on tmaxll_tuner.

I've been doing that. It seems to get better everytime I do the "automap" feature. Just wondering if there was some tick mark somewhere I was forgetting.

If you can figure out the approximate throttle position location and RPM of the hesitation, you can go into the map and add a couple degrees of timing. You can also add Accel Fuel in the module Configuration / Basic settings. The 3rd option is a little more complex as it requires mods to the AF/TPS tables.

Two way connection
Not to hijack this but I'd like to ask....I'm about to change my exhaust & I can't seem to unscrew the 02 sensor due to it having a wire connected to it which then goes to a two way connection ( plug) can't seem to pull apart this connection... is there a trick to it?
Thx!!
