Quake: Doesn't it have "Cranking Compensation"?
<Edit> It does it's "Cold Crank" and is set as a %

8860 has a better version of it with 2 axis adjustment 
(page 83)
So you're saying it's in the manual but not in the software?

That's a pullup/down Mark.
I thought going on my brief play with the Stinger SW yesterday it had onboard resistors that you can switch?

I just sent the Stinger guys a message regaurding my problem.
I run a narrowband 02 sensor to give me a little better fuel economy during cruising.. the only problem is whenever the car idles for more than 20 seconds, the narrowband function over-corrects my idle and causes the engine to hunt.
I've been trying to tune this out for a year with no avail. I've touched everything. As soon as I turn the narrowband mode off, the hunting stops.
The narrowband feature is great, but there is no operational "window" for it. You can only select -20KPA and down (more vac). You can't select.. say.. -20KPA to -60KPA. That would be too easy...
Just keep this in mind if any of you are going to go through the trouble of installing a narrowband 02.
I'll update if they get back to me/update the software.. which they havn't done yet for any of my requests :3d_frown:.

Scott: It's a bit "ugly" but could you use an AUX channel based on TPS to shut the NB signal off at idle?
There's an idea! I was thinking about how I could wire up a switch to control it, I guess I could just kill the power to the NB02 with a manual switch/aux out. Thanks!
For now I lowered the "allowable change %" for the stinger's control over the NB02 and t helped out quite a little bit at idle, but I know my fuel economy will suffer.

There's always a workaround if you think about it hard enough
As I said it's ugly but will do the trick.
I'd just switch the signal on/off as required using a solid state relay.
0>2% Tps = 0
3>20% Tps = 100
21>100% Tps = 0

Good call, as I recall you chance pre-maturely killing an O2 sensor by exposing it to heat without power going to it.
Speaking of finding walkarounds, the idle control was so finiky for the stinger I finally hardwired a switch for it. It's crude but it works, and also saves one of your auxilary outputs for something more important. Hopefully someone will find that helpful for their coldstarts.

It was on an earlier version of the software, but they removed it during an update. I have emailed EMS and asked them to put it back in. No word yet, but I will post what I recieve from them.
It was a handy tool, I don't know why they dropped it.....

That was the only reference to a BIP-U resistor I crossed. Still looking though...
