I have no idea what any of this means... But Dad got me an Actron CP9110 for my birthday and it got here today. I "Read Codes" and got 26, QDM A. I can make that set again by playing with my fan switches, Kinda cool... But then I did the "View data" thingy, And I bet these are the numbers people use...

Here'* the best idle it'* had in months:

So... Why does my car lope at idle, almost like it has a mild cam. And why does it suck off the line? And is there anything about to break that I should be replacing soon?

First of all, I think you should let the car warm up. Idle REQ is too high. Was it cold?

It'* 67 deg outside... I drove the car this morning to pick up smokes.... So... Car'* Idling now.

In neither frame was your car warmed up, but the second one was closer. At least it was in closed loop.

Try a snapshot at idle when it reaches operating temp. Otherwise, everything looks normal at first glance.

Better? My sister went to sleep so there'* noone to hit "enter When I want it to Freeze data, No more motion runs tonight....

Exhaust O2 changing rapidly between rich and lean indicates correct AFR.

Idle RPM'* are where they should be.

IAT is a bit high. Need to work on that

You don't get a QDM fault with the brake on? Don and I both do with the same tool. Does on DrJay'* car with mine, too.

Yeah I do... The love of copy and paste, Forgot to update that one....

Hey dame, kinda side note, did you ever get that Serial Cable to work?

Nope. The scantool was to make sure the car is actually outputting data, Now to find out what was wrong with the cable setup.

Heh, I got over 22K MAF at 50MPH, This should be fun to test.....

So.... What do all these numbers mean? And what should they be?

It think LT and ST trim must Long Term and Short term fuel trim, But is that number a percentage? That'* how much it'* increased the injector duty cycle right? I've seen ST over 180....

The Gear SW'* seem to show what gear I'm in, That'* cool, there' the A/C and CC stuff, that'* useless... Evap duty is pretty obvious, but what'* it supposed to be? It seems to like to stick around 25-30. Coolant SW? what'* that used for? EGR solenoids are another obvious one, But when should they be on? KS counter? huh? osS crosscounts? KR? Spark adv? What should I be seeing here?
