jzz30 Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 yea you can either disconnect the battery for like 2 minutes or you can pull the EFI fuse for the same time and that way you can keep all of your settings in the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white ice Posted October 26, 2004 Author Share Posted October 26, 2004 do you shift through all the gears with a manual, including reverse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadistic Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 do you shift through all the gears with a manual, including reverse? ← I'm pretty sure the only reason it suggests that is to re-learn the fuel curves. It's going to take some time of driving before the ECU is completely back to normal, so your car may act kind of odd for a few days. Just reset the ECU, or pull the EFI fuse, then drive the car normally for a few days, or drive it how you want the car to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
