Microtech 12.14ms during cranking?

Will not start...it just floods. It ran fine before it sat for a few months.
The injectors are going straight to 12.14ms during cranking....is this right?
water temp is 24c...I reduced the fuel at 24c by 10% but the injectors still show 12.14ms....that's maxed out!!! Someone tell me how to reduce the 12.14ms.

Never under estimate the power of new plugs....and I set the mixtrm to -20%

started right up...idles great at 750 but I still have: batt, home, & ref errors.
I'll have to look into these errors.

dudes, can you help me with a big problem I'm having with a Ltx8, it was originally configured for series 6 triggers, but went to get re-configured for series 5 CAS, and now its all wired up but there is no RPM signal with turnig over the engine, tried another CAS outside the car, but still not RPM signal is being detected. Any advice would be greatly appreciated...

friends car is doing the same thing, seems these systems are very sensitive to plug fouling. even a slight hiccup during cranking tosses the timing out the window, it sounds like the timing would severely advance causing a preignition type of condition while cranking.

if you have this problem, try new leading plugs...

i can't remember off the top of my head but i believe MixTrim takes fuel away from the whole map, which would be a bad thing if it was fine tuned. try leaning out the cranking maps if you must lean it out if it is flooding during cranking.

had the same problem. in the options screen where you change the mixtrim theres the af ste option or some **** like that, and I turned the % down like 5-8 points and that has direct relation to the injector MS during crank up.

also I lowered the settings on the water temp and crank maps

af ste is after start enrichment, yours probably was set too rich in the first place.

gotta remember, many many things tie together in maps.

Mine started doing something like this. I just started mine a few days ago and was workign bugs out of it when I go out one day and bam it wont start. I feel its due to my plugs fouling out because it is so rich all the time but damn fouling out just sitting in the driveway never even moving comon. But I am going to change the plugs tonight when I get off work and find out if thats the deal I might cut down the MIxtrm a few notchs how many in the neg is safe any ideas?
