Have you tried cracking throttle with your foot?If it starts you may just need to let idle air counts relearn, this could cause no start without adequate airflow.

No I havent. It doesnt even try to start. When he sent it back the first time it bump started like always!!Im assuming there is a problem with the tuning. The car ran perfect when I took it out.

If you really think that is a possibility, Ill put it back in and try it. I had it out to send back to Ed on Mon. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

You might try disconnecting the connector to the MAF. According to the FSM, that puts it into the Speed Density Mode.

Im confused, why would I need to put it back in the speed density mode? Im not doubting it, I just dont understand. Last time Ed had it the car fired right up after I installed it ? What would be different this time? Thanx

He may have changed idle settings, its easier to try what i said than send pcm back isnt it?See what happens first.

Thanks guys, I tried both your ideas and no go. It doesnt even try to start. It must be in the tuning. He set my idle and all other parameters the first time. I sent it back to have him richen it up a bit. Ill have to call him mon. Thanks for your input!
