Yup, all fixed. The very limited amount I've had it on there I've like it a lot. It seems like it idles much smoother than ever before and since I'm an engineer by trade I like the tuning aspects a ton.

I think around 18 if I remember correctly. Issue ended up being a bad initial tune though

This is exactly what I needed! I read this a few times and got a weird idea to do a reset from the beginning. Turns out it must have been a bad initial tune where the computer learned some bad habits and stuck with them since I didn't turn off timing control on first startup but only later on. I...

So here's an update, I ended up pulling the intake and resealed it with the gaskets under warranty. Started it up again with all vacuum ports on the TB plugged and still had the issue. After I put it back on I didn't reconnect the linkage to eliminate that as the cause. Spraying cleaner at the...

I've kept a gauge on the brake booster hose and the needle stays constant in the green zone whenever the engine was running. I have it set 10 deg advance.

Thanks, all this stuff I'm doing for the first time and kind of learning as I go but it's definitely worth the headaches!

I didn't disconnect the cable, but I pulled it forward so there was slack and pushed on the throttle to make sure it was closed and it didn't change anything. When I get it back though I'll get it set up without the cable attached to see if that was the problem.

I checked and wiggled each vacuum hose on the ports which tells me they're sealing properly. I agree its not necessarily hard to reseal the intake and I'm thinking I'll do that if it comes back that the sniper was fine, I just didn't want to go spend more money on another set of gaskets, pull...

Hey everyone, I read on this forum a lot but finally made a profile so I could try and figure out this issue. I have a 318 from a 1990 W150 and I put a holley sniper 2 on it with an old streetmaster intake. When I start it up it wants to idle around 1500 or so and I can only lower it around 1000...
