Dawn, one explanation could be: First you have a bad connection so it runs badly. Next you unplug the OXS, so the ECU runs on default: better than a bad connection. Last you plug it in and get a good connection, so the the ECU controls the FI correctly: better than either of the first two. -Larry |
