Yeah, so I told the tuner to disconnect the Aeromotive DFMU because it wasnt needed. Instead, the just basically shut it off without providing power to the second fuel pump. So, I turned the DFMU back on by adjusting the sliders to about max. Im assuming its ok to max it out, because the fuel return system will compensate for any excess fuel being pushed through.
.....I just tested my theory, and the A/F gauge stays a nice constant 11.5. Even at 7 lbs where before it would lean out completely. I still plan on getting it tuned, but at least now, Im not risking my engine as bad as it was before. I would still like to just disconnect it and just run power from the other pump to the second.

Please keep us updated on the progress of your tune. I'm sure we are all interested and would like to know that your car is alright
By the way, just for interest sake, how much did it cost for the trucking company to ship our car to AAM? How far away is the shop from your place. I can't imagine it being cheap with the price of diesel being as high as it is..

well,
not sure if I can afford it now, i guess it needs the manifold repaired (about 800 or so), new plugs (400.00) two new rear tires (700.00) tune (700.00) and few other minor things...Grand total was like 4000.00. To avoid cost and just get a minor tune (rear tires required and plugs recommended) it was still 2700.00. 500.00 was them covering shipping.
Sux... I know I can do plugs for cheaper, and the tires. I will prob have them fix the manifold and ship it back. Once I get the other stuff done, I will drive it up for tune...
