no point

resetting it does nothing, there is no 'learning mode' only factory mode.

the ECU is constantly adapting to different conditions, if it gives you flatspots without resetting it, it sure as hell wont make a difference if you do!

disconect the + for 10 mins. but make sure you know the radio code if you have a standard head unit.

when i fitted mine my revs hit 1800 RPM for ages and so i resetted it and it settled down to 1000 RPM.

leave it idiling for a couple of mins with out touching the accelerator.

some say it works some say it dont.

i found that putting the ecu in the washing machine on a 90 degree white wash caused me some running problems... but thats just my own experience
