I like to reset the computer after every change I make to the engine. I think this is VERY good advice. The EPROM chip set remembers the previous settings until it is cleared of memory. I used to do this with my friends cars without explaining what I did and they were just amazed at the difference and how well the car ran.

Remember too that spark plugs and plug wire quality have alot to do with idle quality. If the electrodes are worn, or the wire is cooked then you will run poorly no matter what.

Also, If you are running an MSD or Crane Hi6 like I am, YOU MUST RUN SPIRAL CORE WIRES. The graphite type resistance wire will not take the multiple sparks for long before TOASTING.
