I've got new tires going on in the next 2 weeks or so at the dealership. One of the service writers is a real Volt enthusiast so I'm sure I can enlist his cooperation in figuring out the Pin issue.

Thanks for the link to the components. As far as the "ECU pin" you mentioned, do you have an idea of what I would say to my local Chevy dealer parts dept. to order this? Thanks.

Thanks for your prompt and instructive reply. I gather you have yours setup so that you have smooth running without surging or stumbling at all the various mixtures of gas and E85? That's the bugaboo...

Could you summarize the procedure for getting the Volt e85-ready? I know I need the flex-fuel sensor module that measures percentage of alcohol in the fuel and that one or more hoses should be...

Welcome aboard! I just bought mine last Sunday. Still getting used to the silence and the passing of gas stations!

Sounds like you are getting more than your share of data points. Very complicated process. This is definitely NOT a "one and done" activity ;)

Yes, I've always been a fan of slightly high pressure in tires. Will review the threads on GM-Volt as you suggest.

Meanwhile, back in tune town, how is that project progressing? Are you and the...

Glad I have a MY that is covered. Many of the vehicles I've owned in the past were strange birds which had their own unique appeal, but posed challenges when modding due to low production numbers....

Found a hot rod shop about 25 miles away that agreed to upload the tune for me when it's released. Even better they agreed to do it cheap;) because it's kind of a lark for them since they typically...

Will do. Christmas comes a little early this year!

Understood. Thanks for the explanation of how the tech works.

Appreciate your thorough response. Sounds like it would be worth it for me to make the trip to have someone knowledgeable do the initial tune, save my stock tune on a USB thumb drive, then if another...

Thanks for the quick response. Hope our Florida friend(s) come out all right. Since I've never used tuning software before, I'd prefer to pay some much more knowledgable soul to apply the tune to my...

Just joined this thread. Thanks to all parties working on this tune. I'm looking to buy a 2015 first-gen Volt. Assume the tune, when released, will work with that model? Pleased to hear that E85 can...
