Default PCV & Decel Pop ... Easy fix?

Is there a 3rd grade explanation of how to stop decel pop on a '10 Street Glide with V&H Power Duals, K&N filter, and PCV?

Power Commander tech says they can get it out but I had to hook up a laptop to it and call them back, which I have not had time to do while they are open.

Are there some standard settings I can go to in the software or do I need to call them back?

I tell what I had done that remote login before with Dyno Jet and it is well worth your time they were cool and informative. The other is call Jami or Keith at fuelmoto they will also be able to tell you over the phone what you need to look in your map and an what to set it at. Also check for any exhaust leaks or intake leaks also you will be amazed at what one of those will to with this very issue. I would go for the exhaust first simple enough to do.

Yeah, I checked all the exhaust unions from the heads on back. They are all tight. Can't call Jamie because I got the PCV used and not from them. I believe there are settings that will fix it but all the instructions tell you is find a map and put it in.

I've had decel pop on my last 2 bikes and while I've learned to live with it, would like to see it go away just for once.

If you can open your map on your laptop, go to each cylinder, and in the 0 column from 1750 up, change all those numbers from 0 to 15. You can increase or decrease by 5s and you can go as high as 50 without issue. Try it.....you won't hurt anything.

Well news for you if your totally honest with Jamie he will still help you out trust me I know. He did not have to help me but he has and on a few occasions just call and tell your problems they do not even ask if I bought it from them but like I said I was upfront with him. Let him know your from the forum he is one of the guys that has provided unmatched service level I still don't know how they do but thank God they do it!

I'll give Jamie a try. Thanks.

And to Riff 1006, I'll play around with the map. Thanks to you too.

As said above go into your maps and add 15 to the zero throttle column but do it only at the rpm you are getting the pop at. This is what my tuner advised if I had any. Try it as it can't hurt.
