What are you using HPTuners, or EFIlive? EFIlive has excellent information in the help tutorials. What are the trucks you are trying to tune?

I have efi live. Ones a silverado another a Tahoe both 5.3.. I've read alot about tuning but seems like u need to disconnect the maf. I had read there was a way to adjust the tables by just inputting the data log information to adjust the table not make a new one. I don't want answers. I don't mind learning. If u have information let me know. I will read. I know how to data log and mess around alot with the things about a truck just not make a kind of custome tune.

I am away from my computer now, but read over the AutoVE tutorial. That will help a lot.

When you have your tune opened go to the top, it think it is under help>tutorials>AutoVE.
