Well, I can delete the codes for you no problem now. However I still don't know diddly **** about tuning yet. Can't even get my H/C car idling yet.

I'd love to but it's a huge pain in the *** with it stalling all the time. Don't want to **** to many people off in traffic but I think I'm just gonna say hell with it and do it anyways.

Just kinda pissed off that I have HP Tuners but I can't figure out how in the hell to make it idle by programming. I got a feeling that tuning is going to be an extremely difficult task. Oh well.

Car is running extremely rich right now, like burning your eyes rich, so I'd like to have that straightened out just a little before driving around too much.

I'm going to today. Someone wants me to get him some logs and he'll tell me what to change so I can atleast get it driveable. Once I get on the road everythings fine, it's just getting there without hitting traffic that I'm worried about.
