All these Acronym's

Howdy yall..gugugu,

Danny:

TPS=throttle position sensor

ECM-electronic control module(I think?)

EECIV=d/k

1.0vdc=one volt, direct current

Once you adjust your TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) and get a good chip for your ECM (Electronic Control Module), you will benefit from greater timing BTDC (Before Top Dead Center). This combined with a larger and properly calibrated MAF or MAS (Mass Air Flow Sensor) will improve intake flow. The O2 (Oxygen) sensor will allow the ECM to adjust for proper A/F (Air/Fuel) ratios to allow better performance. As long as you don't get a CEL (Check Engine Light) you should notice much better performance, especially when the truck is WFO (Wide ********ing Open)!


Trucks are easy, just don't join the military. More acronyms than you can imagine.

J/K = (Just Kidding)

sp ? = (I'm in a hurry, don't want to look it up or ask somebody but, I have no idea how to SPELL the previous word. Not only that but, I don't want you to point out to me that I didn't spell it right so, I am indicating that I can't spell it in the first place.)


Your wellcum, sp?

So it would be correct if I said
"WTF Roaul, sp?"
Or would I have to say
"WTF, Rowl? (sp?)"
Or, would it be even better to say it like this
"Ruaol, WTF? (sp?)"

Talking

I really do apologize about that name but, that's all the vowels I could find on my keyboard.

(How'd I know I'd be stuck with it this long?)

p.s.
My real name is...Haffa Dalla.
