    you would leave pcv on side of intake connected to check this, you would plug the breather tube to tb with tape.

    Just a thought.... his LTFT's were all substantially below 128. A vacuum leak would drive them above 128. The MAF seemed to be reading too high at idle. Again, opposite of a vacuum leak. In both data logs I mentioned a potential problem with the MAF readings being higher than I have normally seen. That would over fuel it and drop the LTFT'S down.

    @Injuneer
    thats what was confusing the heck out of me, they were reading below 128 witch would mean it's running rich. But when I added fuel it smoothed everything out witch was making me think maybe it had a vaccum leak? When I would take fuel away the computer would get closer to 128 but the jerking and poping would actually get worse.
    Now is SD it is running phenomenal, gonna work on the idle at start up and leave the rest along untill I get a wideband.

    Put about 300 miles on the car just running open loop and it seems to be doing fine. I just spent hours trying to adjust the ve tables to get it to run correctly in closed loop and NOTHING I do makes it any better.
    Cant find any exhaust leaks, all sensors SEEM to be working fine.
    So my question is how bad is it on the car to be driving 100% of the time in open loop?

    Started with a mail order tune witch obviously I knew would need some adjusting, Thanks.
    I'm having a very similar issue in my car. I just put the Jet Tuner on my lap top.

    Well I never fixed my closed loop surge. I've been running open loop for 1500 miles and it runs perfect.
