You'd need to check the timing tables and compare against an original to =
see exactly "what" they enhanced. I'd reconnect the EST circuit--without =
it, you're gonna grenade your engine.=20
Once you get a cold air package for your setup, it'll probably take care =
of the ping--but you'd better get that EST hooked up again. I don't =
think the factory recommends disconnecting it <g>...

Hello All, I am new to the list, and so far, the extent of my knowlege =
is just knowing how to change to different ECM's and factory and =
aftermarket proms.  I am just getting started in the programming stuff =
and so far, it is very interesting.  I just ordered one of the pocket =
programmers from the transtronics website.  It seemed like a good =
programmer for the money.  I am running a 1227747 in my S10 Blazer with =
a TBI 305.  I am interested in modifying my chip for best performance, =
however, am going to go about this very slowly, because i don't know =
much yet and don't want to smoke anything (engine).  One question i have =
is that i seem to have excessive detonation unless i run the 93 octane =
gas, and even with the 93 octane, i still have a little.  I am running a =
hypertech stage III, and realize that it advances the timing more, also, =
i have an open air cleaner which means that i am getting hot air off the =
engine.  I hope to have a good flowing breather w/ducting to the outside =
soon.  The chip i am running is actually for a TBI 350.  Does the ECM =
advance the timing more than stock under all driving conditions with the =
hypertech chip, or just under WOT?  Just a note, i am also running an =
ACCEL replacement ign. set to 0 deg. with the EST disconnected.  This is =
what the factory recommends for my engine.  Any thoughts?  Thanks and =
sorry this was so long.  Jeff
