    I agree, running rich. See attached screen shot BLM summary for log 3. Change the injector flow to a larger value to lean the entire VE table. I recommend increasing the injector flow by 1 lb. or 2 lb. increments. Once the VE table shows both lean and rich conditions, adjust the fuel tables (VE tables) both near idle and off idle for BLM averages of 128.

    One option is to use the Moates.net Burn 2 Chip Programmer (http://www.moates.net/burn2-chip-pro....html?cPath=64), G1 adapter, ZIF Socket, and 27SF512 Flash Chip. Another option would be the Moates.net Ostrich 2.0 (http://www.moates.net/ostrich-20-the....html?cPath=64). I like the Ostrich 2.0, because I can make changes real time, even when driving!

    Hey Dave W, I ordered the ostrich 2.0 today. I'm running a Harris chip and wanted to know if I need the G1 adapter, zif socket and 27sf512 flash chip

    You will need the G1 Adapter.

    Thank's Dave w, I should be getting it by Monday. The moates site said to do a lot of reading beforehand. What threads do you recommend.

    Got the ostrich2.0, and G1 adapter installed in the 16197427 ecm. Will $OD work with my 95 gmc pickup w/4L60E? Is the bin that I need (ANZA.bin)?

    Have you been able to read the .bin file from your original Memcal? Maybe you can post of pic of your original Memcal showing the BCC?

    I don't know what I'm doing, but I'm gonna learn. I hooked everything up by following moates startup and truck want start. I thought I could plug in and start up then look at adjustments. How do I find the bin for the original memcal?

    I am using a touch screen tablet and hit the emulate tab when I picked it up. Where do I go from here?

    You have a Harris Performance Chip, not a stock chip.

    The Ostrich 2.0 won't read the Memcal - Dang it, Dang it, and Dang it AGAIN!

    I don't like the idea of you having to spend more money than you already have - Frustration, Frustration, and Frustration AGAIN.

    Try loading the attached STOCK .bin file into the Ostrich 2.0 and post a data log.

    Thank you Dave, and yes I'm spending way to much money. I have the original memcal but, I have larger cam and throttle body w/ egr delete. The Harris chip is a coustom chip and was stinking up the world. Is there another place I can get on from?
