Default pcv Accel pump settings.

let's hear what you guys and gals are setting your pcv accel pump at. I would have thought it would already be set out of the box but no sir, it wasn't.

So I'm looking for what everyone is setting theirs at. Thanks!

Added the pump at 92% / 20 revs / +15%
Feels good ("SOP dyno") on my 2008 FLHTC with Rinehart 4" duals, SE a/f, dyno tuned.

I have tried it once on friends Triglide with Stage 2 with tman 55 cam. It was having some hesitation off idle. Tried several accelerator pump settings and all they did was smell up the shop. Worked with the enrichment settings in the off idle positions and problem solved. Then we let the autotune trims do the rest. I have PCV on my 2010 Limited and tried the pump on it to improve off idle torque and it really didn't help. I then richened up the 0 and 2% throttle position 5% from 750 rpms to 1500 rpms and it made a large difference in the torque when taking off from stop. The factory ECM has a very efficient accelerator pump in it and you are only adding or taking away from it with the addon controllers such as the PCV.
