• Air/Fuel-TPS @ RPM
These pages reflect
desired targets of AFR to throttle position at
every 256 RPM. Example: if you desire a leaner
mixture for added fuel economy then you can
easily make multi-tiered AFR targets at specific
throttle positions and RPM’s that will be learned
during closed loop processing.
• During warm-up, the AFR on both cylinders will
be richer than the target AFR at normal
operating temperatures; this is a normal part of
the warm-up map. AutoTune and its targets are
inactive below 200 degrees.
