* Most of the time, fuel pulse
width needs to be added to these
tables if the engine doesn’t rev
smoothly. A lot of fuel needs to
be added before the engine
stumbles due to
too much
fuel.
As always, if the symptom gets
worse, try taking fuel out. Spark
advance can also have an effect.

NO
** Avoid making too much
change to the TPS enrichment
table, as this will affect low load
transient response. Concentrate
the most on the MAP
enrichment table, as this has the
most affect on medium load
transient response.
