: Getting balance rates??

Since I dont have EFI Live do I have to go to the stealer to get my balance rates? I want to know what my balance rates are now and then once they I know what they are I will add Marvel Mystery Oil and 2 stroke oil in the fuel. After I run a few tanks with that combo I want to have my balance rates checked again. Just wondering if I go to the stealer how much I can expect to pay.

Don't know the answer to that, but if you pick up a programmer like the Predator or something similar, you can get all that info and more. Food for thought...

well just got my balance rates checked
#1 1.3
#2 0.4
#3 1.5
#4 -1.0
#5 -1.0
#6 2.8
#7 -1.0
#8 -1.1

These were checked at idle to give me a baseline so that next week or so when I go back to the dealer after running Marvel Mystery Oil and a pint of 2 stroke oil in the fuel I can compare. Hopefully this will help convince me to start saving for possibly a FS 2500 oil by-pass system.

What is the connection between the oil bypass system and your balance rates :confused: ?
