Default Power balance
Can you do a power balance test on an electronic ignition car if you pull the plug wires off of the primary ignition (coil pack.) I had heard that you're not supposed to do power balance on electronic ignition cars. I've also heard that if you pull the plug off the coil pack and not the spark plug that it's ok to do. Does anyone know for sure?
Thanks for any advice


Dan

No.

You need a techII or scanner software with bi-directional controls.

Can you do it with a MODIS? I use a MODIS on europeans all the time but I haven't gotten comfortable with the domestics software.
