I am not going to bash a vendor so I won't name them here, but my story is that a vendor provided me with an Ostrich, adapter board, TunerCat software, and the necessary bin files (I think?) so I can tune my 90 auto.
He supposedly put a custom program on the Ostrich to get me started.
Anyway, I discoed the battery, removed the custom ship I had in the thing for the last 10 years (it was on a daughter board), and installed the Ostrich, and reconnected the battery.
The thing did start, but ran like crap! I thought, ok, after a few minutes it will learn and get smoother. NOT. It set a whole bunch of codes which I did not pull yet. I shut it down and I am scared to use it. I wrote the vendor but no reply yet.
Anyway, I figure he screwed something up big time, maybe he used the wrong bin file or something.
Tunercat had the ECM-8D file with it and he provided another file, but it is password protected and he never gave me the password. I don't know if that is the right file for a 90 vert speed density.
Is there somewhere I can just pull the correct factory file and I would like to start from there.
Otherwise I am tempted to just put back the original (modified) chip and ship it back!
Doooooooooooooooo'h! Self inflicted wound! I did not have the chip on the daughter board properly seated. It runs fine when you put it together right!!!!
