do i need a retune?

so i had a misfire before i was dynotuned the first time.

it was a small misfire and i thought it was related to a bad tune from the first shop that screwed up everything.

took it ot a better shop and got dyno tuned..


i decided to replace the coil pack, sure enough i had a weak coil pack which caused the misfire at idle.

now the truck idles a million times better and the bumpy road that i thought was bumpy is no longer bumpy funny how that happens... so turns out my misfire wasnt just at idle! it happened when i was decelerating from 50 as well!

should i get retuned since the misfire is gone and everything seems better?

i wonder if my numbers would be better without a misfire.

I would call Mike Troyer @ troyerperformence.com and talk with him and find out what the best solution would be for you!
