Default Got rid of my decel pop pcIII

I called pcIII customer service cause my decel pop was still there with the canned map they gave me. all I had heard was I would need to go dyno tune the thing. I didn't wanna spend the 158 bucks for the dyno, so I called them again. the guy on the phone told me how to fix it without a dyno.
I added 20 to the far left colum from 2000 rpm's and down to the end, then I test rode it, it almost fixed it, but there was still a little pop, so I went up in incriments of 5 until the pop was gone. the guy said it would work & now it runs great. couldnt be happier with their customer service

That's great, I may get you to walk me throuh that. I have a dyno tuned map but still get a very minor pop every now and then, not much, but if I can tune it out, then I will.

All's you need to do is bump up the fuel percentage between 750 and 1100 rpm's at closed throttle. Most all PCmaps I have seen do not change the closed throttle % of fuel from stock. Your bike will idle anywhere from 750 to 1100 rpm's at closed throttle depending on what the ECUis sending the the FI as far as sensor inputs. I only had a minordecell pop, so I just began bumping up my numbers from "0" to "4", in all the respective idle boxes, and my engineruns perfect. You will also noticea lot less engine cooldown"tinging" after shutdown, asnow your engine idle temps arecooler from the added fuel...
