Hey guys, been running a custom map for a while and am very happy with the drivability of the car. However recently on a couple of the hotter days (near 90) driving on the highway, cruising in 6th, I get a slight flicker of the check engine light when I give it a good amount of throttle. But if I just ease onto the throttle in 6th, it seems fine.

Would any of you guys who are knowledgeable with this sort of thing take a look at it and possibly offer your input or even correct the problem for a fellow member? :mangel:

I'm not to familiar with messing with maps and posting logs, so if you wouldn't mind walking me through it and bearing with me, I'd greatly appreciate it. :msmile:

You would need to datalog when it happens, and send the KDL and KAL to have it looked at. You probably just need the ignition advance adjusted and AFR checked...
