Default Fast 102

I bought a 99 z28 and it has a fast 102 lsxr and unknown 102 tb. It’s always hunting for an idle and it seems very rich. I don’t have any way to log it but I can video what it’s doing. It will jump up to 1400 then almost stall and keep doing that. Occasionally it will stall. It’s a 6speed with headers, loud mouth and small cam. Matt from sloppy was saying these big tb’s are tough to tune (not his exact words) so can I send the computer out to get programmed? I’m in the process of moving and when I get settled in I’m putting the Holley X max in for future swap and I’m familiar with Holley stuff. I’d like to get this thing at least close so I don’t look like a Harley rider constantly revving the engine up saying look at me. (***)

Occasionally it will have a p0172-175 code but it goes out. I sprayed the engine down with brake cleaner while it was running and the idle didn’t change so I’m thinking it’s not a vacuum issue. I don’t want to buy HP tuners just for this. It also has a stumble when it’s cold so that might be related. It has 410’s so I usually don’t use first gear.

Any ideas?

Thanks

You are either going to have to buy HPT, learn how to tune it, have someone remote tune it or take it someone.

I’ve looked around for tuners but no one gets very good reviews. I might just put the ls1 intake on and hopefully it works better. My new motor is a rec port head so the 102 won’t work anyway without mods.

You can flash that PCM using PCM Hammer and inexpensive (under $100) OBD2 hardware.

Not sure what operating system is on it right now but 12587603 is well supported and you could switch to it.

Most of what you'll need to know is in the wiki pages at at http://pcmhammer.org/
