How much did you spend on all that 'stuff' that didn't fix the problem? Would that money have bought the Techmate Pro or the Diacom software?

I see more people with EFI/MPI engines spend money chasing problems essentially with blinders on, since they cannot 'see' what the engine's computer is actually doing. Maybe there is a smartphone app or something that can do the same thing as the pricey software? :noidea:

Got an engine model and serial #?
