Use the jeep as a table when we were out sighting in our bows for archery season. That's all for today.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, bud. Maybe you'll have better luck with yours.

It's all good man. I'd rather be told the truth.

Took her out for a first drive after tuning it to burn at most economical air fuel ratio (15.4). Filled it up and will se Ho far this tank taks me. I noticed that under load the PCM still makes the mixture richer. I guess I won't have to re tune when I tow. If its to lean then, il set up a switch for tow / economy. More to follow.

I have a wideband O2 sensor/gauge MTX-L from Inovate Motorsports

It has a programable analogue output that I feed into the PCM instead of the factory O2 sensor.

ohhhh yea. Holy throttle response.

Of course you also need a free flowing exhaust to see any benefit

It changed for me! Much less effort for speeding up. And thanks to low rpm torque I can shift earlier, and 5th gear makes sense now . It was hardly pulling if I was under 45-50 mph uphill, but in 5th gear it now accelerates greatly, even below 40.
