As the title says, i just swaped to e85 and cold starting seems fine, fires right up. But when i went to start it after warming up, it took about 10 seconds to crank. Anyone know what is needed different startup wise between e85 and 93?

yes...
about 35% more fuel
Its been tuned, all the injector data has been updated. But why would the cold start be ok but warm struggle? Ill post the tune when i can to see if something was missed

here is the tune
you need to scale the start up table... old/new injector size.. take that percentage and multiply it across all the values in the table
fuel, general, start up injector pw, start up base
What injector?
50ms cold and 9ms warm - try reducing warm even more. When cranking is prolonged it usually means its too much fuel. A good hint when you pop the throttle and it helps...
Your main STOCH is still set to 13,88
I had 392 injectors. Now i have 1000cc injectors. And i could have sworn it was set to around 14.7.
That was not my experience with ethanol so I will disagree. Isn?t there a chance adding pedal helps add fuel too? The motor is not spinning 500 rpm at that pointQuote:

So do i need to add fuel or take away fuel?
I am not there but you would use trial and error as you have no idea which side yer on
What is ambient temp?
Easiest thing is as stated previously, crack the throttle slightly. 10-20%. If it starts up instantly or easier, you either need more cranking airflow or less cranking fuel or a little of both. At that specific temp, not globally. That's typically the case with big injectors. It's rarely MORE fuel it needs.Quote:

The issue was to much fuel. I added 50% more startup airflow, and took away 20% startup fuel in the 90+ degree coolant areas of the table amd now starts like it should.
Great...
