Programming/Smog Question
Hey All,
Anyone have an idea of how long and/or far I have to drive my truck (2000 F250 V10) after I re-program the ECM for it to reset completely?
I set my ECM back to stock as i have to have it smogged (good ol' PRK), I have driven around town for a bit but it failed the test as the computer had apparently not reset.
So, I drove it a bit more, and according to my scanner there are still 2 mode that have not reset (EV & CC).
So, long trip, short drive, foot to the floor?
Thanks.

Evap takes forever. You are allowed one monitor not checked in. There is some runs to make, like 3/4 throttle to 45mph than to stop three times, stop and go traffic, hold at 60mph for 10 minutes. I don't remember the order. The evap is usually the one the one they let you slide on. What is CC? That doesn't ring a bell.

CC is catalytic converter.
Yes, Evap is STILL open, but everything else cleared between 36 and 80 miles. Took it back this morning, passed (with flying colors) with the evap monitor still not reset.
