i have a 2004 kia rio, 1.6l running headers, cai, adjustable cam gears.
I just bought a MS1 from a friend of mine who was in a jam and needed money. Same car as mine. I am trying to tune it to get it to idle and just drive normal for now. and i will later learn to Tune it. can anyone help?

Right now. it will not idle. and it is rough as heck and has alot of back firing. Any help?

Ok. Could you post a copy of your MSQ and a data log of the problem?
