Livernois Tune Madness on "Winter Blend"

[FoMoCoSHO]

Would you possibly describe this issue as a short lived sudden miss?

This is what mine did when I had it:  https://youtu.be/ucgwkBqCxkc

watch around 40 MPH...it miss fires and redlines...never did solve the issue.

Is it still happening or was it a one time deal?

Did it all the time with a tune.  Fine with stock and yes plugs were re-gapped and all that.  Don't have the car anymore.  Unfortunately Livernois wasn't of much help in solving it.

Almost seemed like your tranny was slipping too...

Yeah and you can't hear it but it would "pop" too.

[JMR76]

Yep, that's what mine would do.  Just started doing that in the colder PA weather.

Jason didnt you have a Corsa exhaust back then?and the other member also,and lots of oil inside the spark plug wells does not help your issues,Btw the OP stated the pop is coming from his Corsa exhaust,find it quite odd ummm,think you need to change your plugs more often and check for any visible signs of oil inside the spark plug wells for a peace of mind,now if your car has less than 10k dont even share your opinion in the matter.  Z

All this talk about plugs, I can't wait to see the plug service recommendations for the new Raptor and GT. I seriously doubt its every 15k.

BTW, last time I checked this is a public forum so Jason is welcome to share his opinion as is everyone else.

I'M actually waiting for Jasons quote and you are correct FoMoCoSHO, Yes sir!!

I thought we suppose to keep it real and not outside the scope,i'm done here.  Z

I was relating what I had experienced to the OP as it may be the same/similar issue which Livernois states that have never heard of...

If it is the same issue that would be incorrect as I have the emails back and forth with Livernois about the issue I was experiencing.  It doesn't matter how many miles are on the car which I traded in with 31k and it still had the same issue with the Livernois tune but was fine with the stock tuning.  I wasn't too concerned with the issue since I didn't drive around with my foot going to the floor all the time.  I just left it alone. 

The OP can watch the video and tell me if he feels it is a similar issue.  Didn't matter if it was summer or winter blend fuel either.

Don't have that issue with the 16 Sport I have now which I do have a Livernois tune in.

Was that video done in the cold? How cold and how long did it warm up?

Looks like a cold transmission not allowing a shift to me...just a guess, but I've seen other videos just like this from guys who get in car after a brief warmup thinking it's ok to go WOT already.

The engine was was warmed up as you can see by the coolant temp gauge.  That video is from 2.5 years ago.  Didn't matter if it was warm or not.  It did it ALL the time with the tune in it.

Couldn't really tell, not as familiar with the 13+ gauge setup. I can let mine warm up for 15 minutes to get the coolant to operating temps...but, it takes another 20+ minutes of driving to get the trans up to about 130* in temps that are below freezing. The trans warms very slow and caution should be taken to avoid any kind of WOT pulls before it is up to a decent temp.

I never get on my car when the trans temp is under 120-130 range. So I would have no idea if my car does that. I do notice slower shifting when the trans is not up to temps in normal driving though.
