I have a 02 X1 lightning. sat for 20 months. drained oil,new filter, fresh tank of shell 93oct. batt was dead. replaced it.Also new plugs. has a vance &hines can. a race ECM. runs really rough (750rpm cold) between 1000 &2000 it feels like its only running on one cylinder. After warm up it purrs like a kitten around 3000rpm. it will never start at a high idle. I ordered the cable for ECMSPY. I have the program (1.12.27) installed on my laptop. can anyone give advice. did sitting for so long erase the ECM data???? willing to share program with anyone with a decent stock or close to stock map to load?? and tell me how to do it. it only has 6,000 miles on it. really nice shape. please email me at slincourt@gmail.com |

If it sat with fuel and no fuel stabilizer you will need to clean your fuel system. I recommend lucas probably 4 or 5 tanks with lucas. If it has a carb you will need to break down the carb and clean jets with kem tool. Hope it helps |

Don't the FI tubers commit "fuelicide" after running empty? Seems sitting with a long time with a dead battery might do the same thing. Take it for a ride for about 10 miles holding about 3000 RPM as much as possible to let the ECM relearn how to map the fuel before tearing into it too much. |
