Had a couple of little problems. Called them and they gave me a different program. No problems after that.

Is this a problem that developed over time, or right from the start? You did calibrate the throttle, right? Are you having a problem with hesitation, stumbling, or something else?

On the fuel pack, I don't believe you can calibrate the throttle. If you can, please advise how...

Step #19 of the setup procedure is to slowly roll the throttle open to WOT. As you do this you see the fuel pack calibrate itself from 0-100. This is the throttle calibration I believe he mentioned.

As for mine it was plug and play. Runs great with no issues whatsoever.

Thanks....

I'm also going to check the software version of my Fuel Pak today and assure that Mode 19 (throttle Setting) is set correctly....
