Not all cars have exactly those numbers but a good place to start if things have been played with.

It had to happen I suppose, playing with Nanocom just now, I think I f****d up bigtime.
Whilst in the EDC mode, checking the fuel modulation at operating temp I had a reading of 86%, engine running, not a million miles out I believe.
So, ah, whats this? Timing solenoid, whats that do then? pressed it & the engine revs went up, oooh, dont like that, press it again to go back, no difference! OK, ill press this, ELAB valve, engine stopped dead, pressed again, but no, no way could I go back to the beginning. Went back through all the menus to start again, but now it wont communicate with the engine ECU or the BECM!!
Have I finally managed to have my 2.5 ton paperweight after all????

They are the defaults in the Nanocom emulator !! As the Nanocom guide says, peeps should take a note of all settings, plus as you said never change anything you don't understand. They are really intended for programming a replacement ECU to match the old one.

12mm cranked deep ring spanner makes the fip nuts a doddle to loosen/tighten. I had to take the viscous fan off on mine to get the engine temperature up on a freezing cold day. Driving it wasn't an option, no mot, tax or insurance.
