So I'm on a quest to learn the basics of tuning, nothing fancy at this point. I saved for 3 months, and finally was able to purchase ecmlink. Which is my first experience with any engine management system. I grew up wrenching on old carbed v8's, and some old EFI systems. I've studied up on fuel trims, sensors, timing and how it all works together. I feel I have a solid understanding of the basics. But what im struggling with is tying it all together. There's so many terms and values that don't mean anything to me yet. I've been trying my best to search every term individually, and it's really overwhelming. Just for an example, load factor, I have no reference of what it is or should be? And there's many more.
So my question is. Do you guys have some recommended resources I can study, and gain a basic understanding of values, terms, and definitions of tuning? Even if it's in general, not link specific. I think the issue I'm having is it's all a foreign language til you have an application to apply it to. Sorry for the ramble, but any input is greatly appreciated?
