Adjusting BLM

[Six_Shooter]

The reason your dash went blank is because "100%" means that 100% of the width and/or height of the dash is the new gauge. If you want a gauge that is one quarter of the dash, say the top left corner you would set the gauge settings to be Top 0%, right 50%, left 0%, bottom 50%. The 0% is referenced to starting from the left side and the top of the dash.
If you wanted a gauge that was the top right hand corner, the settings would be Top 0%, right 100%, left 50%, bottom 50%.

You can use all sorts of in between settinsg to change sizes and positions of the gauges.

there are situations where you don't want it to be correcting though... anytime you're in AE/DE/PE/DFCO or immediately after leaving one of those states...

I turn off DE/PE/DFCO/EGR/Hiway-Lean then do a data log for BLM and it has been so close to spot on with AE left on. Vehicle just drives to bad without AE to get good data, and AE will be there when done. Has worked well for me.

anyways.... back on topic?

This could be added to everyones signature...

Mark, can you share what the setting are to turn those features off?

[gregs78cam]

Or better yet, Mark, add a sub-heading to XDF parameter tree with copies of these XDF parameters, for a quickly accessible way to turn them off without searching through the whole XDF tree.

[EagleMark]

That's a good idea!

Let me think about this reorganization while I sleep off this 65 degree yard work day... probably AM I can get er done!

[EagleMark]

I reorganized the $42-1227747-V4.3.xdf and added categories. Load the xdf and click View, Show Parameter Tree, then Parameter category. You'll find one for Turning off for Data Logging. Each one has instructions. Also use the parameter comments!

NICE!!!! The MGP from hack is that new? and how accurate is it?

[EagleMark]

It's pretty close... you have to do the BPW hack, then it uses that with other calculations. I haven't worked on it enough yeat to get overall MPG but if you look at it in history table you can find a sweet spot for higway driving. I found 3 MPG in my brick shaped Suburban at 65MPH compared to 75MPH. But no difference at 55MPH.

Very cool. I've modified the bin an will burn it in soon. I have the same brick suburban you do. so the gauge should read GPM, not MPG... :D So after I get the BLM re-ironed out and spark to the best MPG, anything else we can do to get MPG? for this chip that's all I'm interested in...

[POZE]

I travel through that rolling terrain often and don't get 37 MPG with a four cylinder. Good tuning. GM might want that back so they dissect it. Forty Five minutes almost puts you at Milford.

[RobertISaar]

they can buy it back for twice the MSRP, adjusted for inflation. :D

i could get into a new (as in not quite released yet) impala for that payout. then again, maybe i want to trade this W-body for the last one to ever roll off the line in the next couple of months....
