    IAT adjustment table?

    Is there a table that adjusts fueling based on intake air temp... what is it ?
    Every time I get close to getting the VE table set, it seems to get fatter due to the air temp dropping as we get further into the colder weather.
    TIA

    iirc you dont get that particular table because the temperature is built into the function of density based on the ideal gas law. PV=ρRT where ρ= PV/RT to find density.

    Bias table will work which is a set point between ECT and IAT..

    I tend to make it follow ECT mainly which only changes as it warms up... then iat which will change won’t take much effect..

    If iat gets too hot I use PE iat table if available along with timing

    I was gonna mention this. How far do you set the bias table to reference the ECT.
    I'm not fully dont tuning but it's annoying when my AFR starts going lean as the IAT go up.
    Thinking about testing it with all 1s?
    Any input will be appreciated.

    at low flow rates i bias to cts

    after cruise regions I let it all fall on the iat

    This way during cruise when I bring up coolant temp for economy, the a/f ratio coincidentally leans out as well (I only run open loop)

    bias as to which to reference for temperature in the formula but no multiplier or scalar that allows direct correction to the event. Like you said you really only get that enrichment value unlocked in the PE settings.

    sorry OP, i was a little vague and didnt offer you a solution to at least bring you some temperature stability.
