Drove to Little Italy, wanted two slices of pepperoni… They had one cheese slice, but would not make anymore pizza… went to leave the AMAZING Cobleskill Price Chopper parking lot, got cut off by a sweet black rusty vert cavailer circa 1992… gave the guy thumbs up because hes an asshole, he nods to acknowledge this… not 100ft further get cut off but a blue dodge dakota… make it to the exit, only to have a cop pull along side me and wait for me to get on it… slowly proceed on to main st… goto arbys, get food, first thing I have had today… then proceed home without further incident. Love this shit ass town. /sarcasm

Try that, see if you see values in the +/- \>15% on the airflow ranges for 0-50+ g/s you need a tune. If you don’t fix that you’ll probably require a new short block in the near future.
