If engine management is to spendy for you do some research in what sensors determine what amount of fuel, and timing you engine gets. If you take your time and don't mind replacing the parts you break i can/will pay off. Right now I can safely say that I no longer have any "flat spots" in the power curve.

I gotta get with you about your solutions to the flat spots. It's driving me nuts. Our heat and humidity only make it worse.
