The map Jamie loaded for me came straight off the dynojet website. I looked it up and confirmed this. No pinging or popping on decel. My bike was made in March. Even with some of the changes I made it still runs a little warmer than normal. I probably will load another map I have and see if it riches thing up a tad more.

I've run PC III's for quite awhile, and I always add fuel in the zero, 2%, and 5% throttle columns. I add it in increments of 1 or 2, usually as a means to tune out decel popping. Experiment a little; you'll get it where you want it.

I'm not clear what numbers you used. One guy say he put 25 in the column and you say 1 or 2. Can you give me an idea what numbers you settled on in each column? Thanks.
Put the smallest number in the 0 column that will get rid of the popping. I have all zeros, no popping. Make sure you have no exhaust leaks.
You may want to try another map, there's not one right answer here. Trial and error or to the dyno you go.

Thanks for the input. I'm going to try adding 12sin the 0,2,and 7 columns. This should help the decel issue. I'm not having serious problems except an occasional pop. I just wan't to smooth out the decel. It seems like the fuel is shut sompletely off and the bike goes into a compression slow down. Like I said earlier, it's hard to describe.

BTW, I called my dealer and asked about a dyno run. He quoted me 3 hours for a PCIII tune. That would bring the charge to over $300 . . . OUCH!

Yup same thing here for me 07 EG with pc III

ORIGINAL: FLHT

Any of you guys with the 07s and running a PCIII having any pinging problems? My 06 is fine but my brother with his 07. Cracks the throttle hard and it will ping on him.

My map from FuelMoto for one of "their" packages, had all zeros on the 0 throttle position column. I had no decel popping, BUT, I also STILL had high heat.

I would have though the FuelMoto packages would have been tweaked to set up all of the important stuff, and espcially to richen up the mix at the 0 throttle setting to elimiate the very high heat condition on the 07s. But apparently not.

I set the 0 throttle low rpm settings for 25. Significantly reduced the heat, still causes no decel, and no loss of milage.

...still surprised me that I had to do this on my own. I've got a laptop so it wasn't a big deal but I imagine others might not.

I don't get the feeling that the FuelMoto maps are any too sophisticated. They are simple, non "Advanced" maps.

Thanks oldhippie, (me too!)
I'm going to do the exact same thing with my 0 column and probably the next 2 columns.

Funny thing is that I have to borrow my daughters laptop to do it. I bought it for her to use at school now I'm using it to tune my bike . . .

my map from fuel moto is 'advanced' not a basic one but how far down the zero scale did you go with the 25 entry. Or maybe you could paste your map her for us to look at, or not just a thought...

I just tried to post a .djm file up here, and it won't let me do it.. so I copied it into MSpaint and will post that here. If anyone wants the map, I'm happy to share it.

I have the Dyno tune results posted and I've posted a write up and dyno chart on it in the dyno section.

if you want the map, I'm happy to share it, this isn't the FuelMoto map.. I had a local tuner (with a strong reputation in this area dyno it) and this is his map. the FuelMoto map was nothing more that what came off the Dynajet site, (not an Advanced map).

Here's a write up https://www.hdforums.com/m_1976510/tm.htmand dyno sheet

Thank you very much for posting the map. It is easy to see what was done in the 0 column. I am sure this is to help with a "too lean" condition on deceleration.

I'll do the same thing with my map tomorrow.

Just add ".txt" to the name of a copy of the file and upload that. It'll "take" here and we can fetch it, then remove the spurious filename extension. Much easier than entering all the numbers by hand, and surer, too.
