Limp mode
How can you tell if you are running in limp mode? I am getting ready to fire up the LS1 and need to know if it is running right.

Re: Limp mode (70 LS1)
I think the PCM only fires 2-4 cylinders...you'll know, trust me. Had it happen before and there is no question. Floored, you might get to 20 MPH :eek:

Sorry, I thought this thread was about something else. I always check my DIC to see if I am in the Limp Mode. :lol:

Nothing worse than a DIC that goes into limp mode when you really need it!
