[QUOTE="Swervedriver, post: 12160762, member: 12324"] Fuel tank evap is also "emissions BS" but absolutely will throw you into limp mode like I described above. I had 2 codes. EGR and EVAP. One of them caused the car to go limp and switch from the well setup tables: 17° timing and an AF of 11.8:1, to the LWFM table which was still as it came from the factory. Load dropped from 1.999 to 1.4, timing jumped up to 26°, AF jumped up above 15:1. Car felt like it hit a stump in the road. So as a rule of thumb, anytime anyone mentions having a code I reply with "Stop beating on the car" and I describe why. I have yet to see a published list of which codes throw the car limp and which don't so err on the side of caution. [/QUOTE]
