yeah tuning was fine, i just used one of the analog outputs from the LC-1 and connected it into the ecm, then used that reading to tune fuel.

in the ose12P zip file there should be adx's for methanol which should be all setup for what you need, all you'll need to do is get the LC-1 connected and configured and your away.

This picture below is a log i did when i was on methanol out at a mates farm, as you can see its pretty rich in alot of areas

so then what i do is get the commanded AFR table and compare it to what its actually doing .... so if we use 5600rpm 100kpa cell as an example.

commanded = 5.50 - actual = 4.717

4.717 / 5.50 = .858

so then we goto the VE table, and at that point in the table i have 64.45 so

64.45 x .858 = 55.3

so this is our new value .... and basically i have made a spreadsheet to do all that for me, i just paste in the current VE table, and the log results and it spits out a new VE table to paste in.

Wideband Converter spreadsheet can be found here
