if you want to tune a/f ratio for carbie, you need a special o2 sensor tools and put inside your exhaust tip. that's the only way to get the correct a/f ratio. most mech got this a/f ratio box tools. did this to my charade aura and the engine feels a lot smoother and f/c seems to be good...

bro edwin sorry to call u mr..haha... i also not sure what brand is that ECU...im driving wira aeroback 1.5 special edition(manual) year 2004......

wah..must put o2 sensor in exhaust all ah.i think ur talking bout newer cars lah cuz my mazda 626 1980 model never done b4 like that..i sumtimes play with the carby and adjust myself..i turn the screw until my rpm reaches around 1k..then i on the air cond and lights..if drop too much then i turn screw some more lah.my carby got 2 screws...one for the A/F ratio and the other one for idling i guess..i just tune till im satisfied with the sound and engine vibration lah..but i got question here la..my idling always like nyawa-nyama ikan onli..idling for 30 - 40 secs ok thenn suddenly like wanna die like that for a second..then back to normal..this keeps repeating every 30 - 40 secs..im suspecting that my battery cannot give enough power to the coil lah..any ideas pls..thanks..wah i write so long oredi ah..damn..hehehe.

no!!!
do not take out your battery cable...
u can start the car after that but u have to put ur feet always at the pedal..the timing will come too low and the engine will mati when u r into clutch to get into the next gear.

yes this is the way how u reset the ECU but make sure u know which screw to adjust after replacing the battery cable. then go to the nearest workshop and ask them for a good and stable engine tune.

Good luck dudes!!

then i went to change the batteries. only after dat, i hv to problem starting the engine in the morning with my aftermarket air filter.

and LISTEN HERE.......i never put extension air ram longer also......and i wonder those people extend with the air ram.......how they start their car? lol

 

[gohkokeng]

something to add......my problem just start engine 2 times when engine totally cold like overnight next day......not serious until cannot start engine need replace back stock filter siput box lo......

i wonder if K&N drop in will like this also or not? i think probably not because drop in straight direct put on top only.

 

[tylaxng]

My car is LMST.... air filter is K&N (original replacement)... no 2 times start car condition come out in morning....

But when car just stop or engine still warm... if wan start again ... need try 2 times or more...

I ask my mechanic... he said it's bcoz.. petrol still at oil bump(i not so sure wat my fren said:_: )... and ask me try holding accelator(before start car)... and release it or another way is before stop car let engine idle run few minutes...

I can feel start car become easy....

I dont know it is same condition gohkokeng & protonburuk mention.. pardon me.. if any wrong...
