Datalogger Questions.

I just got my logger in yesterday. Plugged it in and took a highway run. Everything is running fine to me but what do I know. I don't even know what I'm looking for. Trouble wise that is. I know at an idle my TPS is running 12.7%. If someone could help me out I could give them the rest of the numbers. And I haven't figure out how to show them on the web yet either. So any help would be grateful!

what program are you using? if you have the mmcd program you will need to download mmcd tool to view your logs in excel, once you get the palm to hot sync that is. Here is a link to some of the basic info about what your logger can tell you.

Here are some of my numbers during a bad idle.
I hope this helps.

what psi do you have you MBC at? you should do a log with a second or third gear pull. judging by your mods list right now, i would think all you would be able to play with is your boost level.

I am not running the mbc. I still have the stock boost controler on. I wasn't going to change it until I get the car running right first.
OK, Here is a different one at idle it tells alot more information on it. I will do a 1st through 3rd run later today and post it.

I did figure out that I can't get 100% out of my TPS. It will only go to 99.6% at WOT. I did readjust the TPS so it idles at 10.1%. That's the best I could get out of it.

what exactly are you trying to do? if your car seems to be running fine now it most likely is. and when you do a log, you only need to log things like timing, knock, rpm, O2R, and maybe your fuel trims.(unless your looking for other specific problems) the more stuff you log, the more inaccurate the logs are. my TPS read 10.1 at idle,(edit, see you already adjusted it). read the info(links) i posted before and if everything seems ok now when you log a pull, hook up your MBC and set it at 12-15 psi or whatever and then do another log to see if your getting knock, and watch your timing advance. then you can adjust your boost further if necessary. good luck.

i wouldn't worry about 4/10's. mine didn't open all the way up to 100%either when i first starting logging. I don't remember exactly what it was but i think it was around 96-98% and probably still is.
