Procede REV3 E85 mix problem(datalog inside)
So, i have been running the Procede for a bit now, and decided i needed just a bit more power, so i figured why not give the 50/50 E85 a shot!
the car is VRSF DP's, DCI, and mufflerless 6mt well, first and second gear pull AMAZINGLY... very, very strong.. but when i shift into third, it bogs like crazy, sometimes for almost the entire gear.. but every now and then itll catch its breath and start pulling correctly! what i noticed on the data log is that when i go into 3rd the car is going CRAZY lean.. between 18.1-20.1 before finally enriching itself, but boost is maintaining at 14 psi or so... i will admit that, yes i AM running stg3 map, without an intercooler or chargepipe... is that REALLY whats causing this issue? or am i missing something? |

Welcome to +34% max fuel trims. You can play with the user adjustable setting and set open loop to 100. See if that fixes your trims. Otherwise you can adjust the OL table to see if you can't get more fuel. Last but not least, PROcede Flash... Good luck.

i just went out and tried it on Map 1 and Map 2, only to get the SAME exact results so you are saying set my OL fuel to 100? |

I know it's frustrating, but you really need to for information.
Are you running the e85 maps? If not download the e85 maps and start over. If that doesn't help, then put more gas in your tank to reduce the Ethanol content. Also, running on Map2 is not going to resolve the issue, just make it worse. Map2 is setup to be more aggressive and Map4 uses Map2 when you're running Meth. So before you start playing with Map2, fix the issue with Map1. What codes are you getting when you hit 3rd gear? Maybe your HPFP can't handle the load or your LPFP can't feed your HPFP. Codes would tell the story. If you have set the OL setting in Global User Adjustable Parameters to 100 and it still doesn't fix the issue. You can try to increase values in the Open Loop Fuel (Map 1) table. From your logs, you should be able to see the load and RPM that you ran out of fuel and max'd your trims. Up the value in the table by +5 and test. If that brings your trim below 34, then you should be ok. |

Log and adjust accordingly. If you ol fueling is set to 75 move it up in 5% increments until you fuel trims run around 15%. I started at 75 and with 80 everything is great..... That being said all cars are a little different, so yours might need more. But log 3rd and 4th gear runs and I'm sure you will find your cars happy place!

of course im running the E85 maps lol, not gonna just start throwing random gas into a $10k motor and hoping it works out haha and perhaps i shouldve been more clear.. i was not talking about running maps 1 and 2 inside that stage, i was actually talking about switching to different stages... as in stage 1 tune and stage 2... and yes, ive tried each map within those different stages here a different data log from last night... showing fuel trim bank 1 at 0 and fuel trim bank 2 at around 30% when the issues are happening... why on earth would bank 1 follow bank 2 exactly, then as soon as i hit third drop to 0%? |

You're not the first person with this issue at all. The older units (rev 2 and below) had a general solution of resetting adaptations and doing a few pulls. With ethanol blending being the new craze, this issue seems to pop up more frequently and there doesn't seem to be a hard and fast solution other than a flash. I think that fixes the problem most of the time. Perhaps shiv can chime in with what the DME is doing.

Some cars can't have as aggressive tuning as others before they get a low pressure code. You need to fine tune the OL 3D table, boost, AFR, E mix, etc depending on your goals. 3rd gear you'll use more fuel due to meeting boost targets and higher load... this is the gear (or even 4th) you need to use for tuning/logging.
I doubt it's O2... recently I thought I had a "slow" O2, but it ended up being WGs, which were recently changed and now no "slow" O2. 1 WG was doing most of the boost control, so air/fuel had more fluctuation. Likely not your issue though. If O2's are meeting AFR target when trims are good (ie. at part throttle), they should be ok. BTW, I don't see any logs. You can post logs and even your current map and I (and others) can help walk you through tuning... it would probably be good for many others also. |

You have to turn down boost in the mid-range to start... find the point of good trims/AFR and then increase aggression.
start with a 3rd gear log from 3k rpms with graphs as: 1. rpm, throttle DME, throttle 2. boost and boost setpoint 3. fuel correction 4. both trims 5. both AFR 6. IAT and DME actual timing Make sure the scaling is correct. And sorry if I didn't read it, but add your mods, E%, and some summary of weather. Hopefully the posted logs will appear for me soon. |

Listen to Josh, he is a smart guy when it comes to tuning.
I was have the same problems with bogs on 3rd shift (6AT) and he tuned it right out. Took a couple tries with different maps, but I have a VERY strong car to show for it now. You probably need to raise your OL Fuel table significantly like josh did for me, but it all worked out.

My car is a total beast with the tune and flex fuel sensor. I have procede, flex fuel sensor, exhaust, dci and fmic and was able to get 425whp on mustang dyno. My car is still at FFTec for the upgraded fuel pump to help with the flow of e85. Good luck |

Can someone give a step by step on how to actually adjust values in the table, ideally with some screen shots? Ive asked for this in other threads and been ignored. I max out trims completely on E85 maps at 100% OL even on stage 2 and I'm full bolt-on. Now I'm maxing out trims even on pump gas. I get these codes...
29E0/1 (fuel mixture control 1&2) 2c32 lambda probe in front of cat 2, Trimming control 2c6b Lambda probe behind catalytic converter, System check Replaced the primary oxygen sensors and the codes are back again, even after reloading maps and clearing adaptations.. Any help is appreciated. EDIT: Sorry to jack your thread, OP...but here's a log. This is non-E85 9-10 maps, stage 3.

I'm not throwing any fuel pressure codes though...
