No wives tale, it resets the adaptive learning part of our computers. It doesn't last very long, but it sure is easy to do every few days.

That is correct. If you have a long drive to work also it will learn very quickly so its really only good for a short while. Get a tune and you dont have to worry about this stuff anyway!

It will work on both as it is resetting the computer and it controls everything.

Dissconnect the battery for 15 minutes and that will reset the throttle response!

Actually it recalibrates the TB servo motor. Apparently the ECU remebers driving habits and stores the info,by doing this simple procedure you reset the ECU?
