Need help tuning LT-10s in Anchorage Alaska, Anyone want to take a Vacation?

Anyone in Anchorage tune Microtec?
or is there anyone coming up here on Vacation this summer that tunes microtec?
My car was out of commision the last two times there was a tuner up here.

I need help..
I flooded my car & then caught it on fire,.. had to replace the main Harness.
After taking a 6- 8 month break,
I have the car ready to start again, but i'm almost afraid to..


If you're a reputable tuner who wants to take a Vacation to Anchorage, Alaska this summer.
I will buy you a round trip ticket, if you teach me to tune my car.
We have a local Dyno, and test & tune at the 1/4 track.

If you like Fishing or Mountain Biking, I'd make a decent guide.


If you're interested, please provide references regarding your tuning skills.
And Dates that you're available to come up here, in late April, May or June.

I'm getting married this summer,
and I would really like to be able to do a fat burnout in my RX-7 when my wife & I leave wedding,.. rather than a one tire fryer in my 79 Celica GT bucket.

I cant really help you as for coming up and tuning.
But i can give you the right numbers to get your car running well.

If you can read afr of your meter and know how to operate your handset then youll get a good tune in their.

Chris, how did the car catch on fire?

It was flooded.
I removed my spark plug wires and took out two plugs.Then turned it over.
Gas sprayed on my oil soaked main harness & there was a little Fireball under the hood.
The oharness stayed on fire for few seconds and melted several wires together.
I'm not sure what sparked it, with my plug wires removed..
I guess I should have unpluged the coils.

If I havn't got it figured out by august,
then I would buy your tickets to Alaska from Hawaii and back.
I don't know about all the way from Sydney though.

I should really be able to do this myself.
I Know how to use the software.
I'm just not sure on what #'s to use..

I probly screwed up previously when it flooded,
by trying to idle 800cc primarys with 1000cc secondarys, when I don't know what the hell i'm doing. and then trying to drive it around the block before it was even idleing properly.

I've switched back to the stock 550cc primarys,
Everythings hooked up & i'm ready to try again,..
in like 2 months when all this friken snow melts.

OK, I'll call & see if I can get in anytime soon.
Thanks for offering to help.
I'm not sure if the guy that owns the dyno knows anything about rotarys,
so I would be nervous letting him tune my car.

Ok sounds good,
Yes, I have an Innovate LC-1 / XD-1 wideband.

Here's what our local climate is like, on average.
if that makes a difference in the tuning.

Thanks rx72c, you da' man..
I'll give these #'s a try to start with,
And fine tune with the AFR Chart and get to the Dyno.

I can only get 90 octane at the pump,
so I'm going to mix with Torco or Sunoco 108 race fuel, to get to 95 octane.

I'll post up later and let y'all know how it goes.

Venom Injectors caused my previous engine fire.
read about it here.
It seems like a lot of people are having problems with these injectors.
