Advance means when your using it and advance (move the distributer assembley). As retard or go backwards would be. So advance means the engine is running and you move the distributer one way you advance from 0degrees to 1 or 5 after Top Dead Center. Newer cars without a distributer can't be changed. For the timing is set by a ECU. Not a mechanical distributer.

I use the advance to set timing especially on engines that the Btdc marks are worn. If the spec is 8 deg before tdc I dial up 8 deg on the tool and bring the heavy tdc mark in line with the pointer and then it is set to the 8 deg btdc spec.

My device actually revs up faster, it takes about 1/2 hour. Just keep checking the green light. Give it a short rest back on the electricity if it reds up.

Still can't get the carb to idle well. I moved the needles in as stated. Just runs for about a minute then quits. Must need MORE adjustments to make it work.No luck so far!! Will keep trying but can't adjust an engine that won't run long enough to do so!

The programmer was good in the beginning, the transmission shifted perfectly towing my 5th wheel but later on it caused My engine to stall. I called the support guys and they had never heard of that problem before but there seems to be issues with edge programmers and ford trucks. I am currently shopping for a different programmer.

I have the exact same bike and it works perfect. I am currently using a canned map and the difference is night and day. I ride everyday and keep it mounted above the speedo and tach on the top of the inner fairing. It is 9 degrees here in DC and it showed the engine temp never get above 173

I have not seen this with the one I have. On mine the "stars" are in constant motion, slowing moving in a pattern.

Hi Harold - there must be a defect then. I set mine for 345 and it stops at that - it will fluctuate a few degrees down when in use - but nothing major. I would contact them and have it replaced

hmm. sounds like you've tested diff variables so that's what I would've done. It worked for me the first time so I'm not sure how to trouble shoot. In the manual or on their website there should be troubleshooting tips.

The 2014 computer has an adaptive circuit for fuel/air mixture. When you put a higher flowing part on it, the computer "learns" the best mixture over time. I'm told that the only thing the Stage 1 flash does for 2014 and above is raise the rev limit.

Because there is something wrong with it. It should only spin when to move the right joystick up or down (forward/back). I would have said it was trim adjustment but there is none. Only left and right has trim adjustment.

change the wheel value around a little then set it on the right one. Then there should be be a choice and the right button will scroll between metric and miles chose the one and left button confirms. I had a tough time getting it right and just played with the two buttons till I hit on the miles and tried to never again touch the button as it changes everything just when you had it right. Controls are a little "Loosy goosy" Bottom line I really like it BUT careful of the buttons

Thank you for this answer. I thought I had a defective unit. How is this not talked about in the manual? Anyway, thanks again.

Eric:Like you, I was unable to get a direct read from either of my 2 remote sensors. It, supposedly, will use the readings to "average" the temps, but like you, I would love to see a direct read-out on the face of the stat!Sorry I couldn't help you . . .Mike

Unknown. Mine is also...reviews prior to my purchase several years ago lamented this as well as it not displaying in mph. Engineering guess is an error in the algorithm...do not know what this says about any location accuracy, but then I didn't get it for that.

Yours may change "slightly", but mine really doesn't. It's much more like people have described those A or C units. I will try your suggestions and see if they help. Thank you.

Hold the button on the right in as you drive the vehicle in a couple of figure 8 circles! That should calibrate it.

it displays only one answer when the pressure is stable, it doesn't change too much (a little) as you step on it. However, its oddly consistent in its answers at one time. If I try it 3 times in a row, I get the same answer. But a few hours later I get a different answer, but that answer will be the same 3 times in a row. I'm going to try it again tonight after reading peoples comments and perhaps see if there is some trick to it that I can get it to work? Otherwise I'm sending it back.
