Half engine light but no codes
I've been getting half engine light at the end of my WOT pulls in 3rd gear.
It goes away after about 5 seconds and no codes are stored. Does anyone have any idea why it is doing that? I've never had this issue before. I'm using map 7 in this video with about 45% e85 mixed with 93. Same thing happens on map 5. |

Is your auto delete OFF? If so then codes should store if it's throwing a half engine. If it's on then that's why you can't get the codes

Don't use map 7 unless you meet these requirements, also higher than 35-40% E85 is going to cause fueling issues on the stock LPFP, and no backend flash. Start by lowering the E85 mixture, and running map 5. |

So what do you think is causing the half engine light? Not misfiring, lpfp seems okay for now.. I just can't figure out what is giving me the light! |

You've hooked the car up to your laptop to check codes through the JB4 correct?

I uploaded 3 logs at once so I think you should be able to toggle between them in that link. I checked the codes through the Jb4 Mobile app and my laptop. |

When the light blinks on, you actually feel the reduced power correct? Does the JB4 stay in the selected map, or does it kick to something different? And for the record, how many miles on your plugs since being tuned at all?

The logs I posted were runs that gave me the light. What baffles me is that everything looks okay, but I'm still getting the half engine light. No reduced power, just the light that comes on and goes away after a few seconds. Jb4 doesn't kick down to map 4 or anything either. I put new plugs in 2 weeks ago. |

Post the .csv in the support section over at N54Tech and Russell will read them pretty quickly, and he can confirm whether or not there's any issues in the logs. |
