Default Emergency Dyno CPR

when i was in the Plymouth Trouble Shooting Contest (in HS) my team mate and i fixed 14 "bugs" in 15 minutes.
i've seen some dyno tests that were low, but no attempt was made to fix it. :confused:
So i thought it might be fun to list all the things that could be checked/fixed in less than 30 minutes while still on the dyno. Any takers?
