    Tuning Help???

    Finally got the WS6 dyno tuned and everything seems to be running great. The only problem is my cold idle. When the engine is cold, I have to use my foot to push the RPM's to about 1500 for a few minutes and then it will idle on its own. If I do not do this, the car will die. Any suggestions from any high speed tuners? The tuner used EFI Live.

    My car does the same thing on first cold start... I deal with it. Big cams don't just start up !!! Only takes mine about 10 - 15 seconds to idle on its own.
    If your still running a stock cam, the the fuel just needs tweaked some !

    That's close to what I'm running. After it's warmed up, I usally have to give some gas for the start up. I use the HP Tuner software, and got it pretty close to start & idle on it's own, but not cold...

    I just fixed this issue on my 228 cam the other night. I took a little more fuel out of the lower part of the ve table and cleared it up.
