If you guys have EMM engine control, have 'em pull your profile - it's

That's an interesting capability. I wonder if that record is just for the past
"X-number of hours", or if it goes back to birth of the engine.

On my ETEC, everything is stored - the only way the engine info can be
wiped is if you have a new EMM installed for whatever reason. My
history goes back to 2006 when I bought the engine.

Very cool.


Is this something new to you boys? My Merc Opti of 2000 or 2001 or so
stored the same sort of information.

Not at all - it was just a fun exercise and something that I've never
done before - never thought of it actually.

The first time I bought my Opti in for service, the tech at the
dealership was hooking up the diagnostic box or the readout box,
whatever the hell it was, and he showed me how much time I had spent at
various RPMs. With my current engine, I spend most of the time between
3000 and 3800 rpm, but under 1000 rpm is probably second.

That's a fairly typical profile as I understand it.

I've never really done this before, but I had a seat-of-the-pants
feeling that the EMM would match what I thought I was doing.

Nice to know I was right. :)
