Default mil eliminator comment

i finally installed my mil eliminators and i noticed a difference. the car doesn't bog in the lower rpms than it did before the mils. i did a search on the forums and someone said the not having the mils hurts performance because it throws the air-fuel ratio off and the computer compensates by retarding the timing. is that true? and if it is, about how much power have i regained by installing the mils. thanks in advance.

hope you didnt run the car without them for to long. not a good thing to do. if you dont have o2s or mills the car will run really rich. thats why your car was running like sh*T. no clue how much power you lost just shouldnt run your car with out them in. our cars runn on computers thats what makes them go you have to have the puter runnin correct.

disconnect the batter for at least 10 mins to reboot you engines computer it will erase all the trouble codes that your computer was putting out when you didnt have the mills in. if you didnt do that already

Or just go buy an OBD II sensor and see what the problem is and not take any chances. The OBD II sensor cost me about 125.00 with the trouble codes book which was like 19.99. I wouldnt take any chances if I were you.

i think they test it . tell you what the code means and you fix the part thats broken. simple as that. after you fix it just disconnect the batt
