Took the computer out of the truck today


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

 

For a while my truck has been running like crap when it firsts starts up.  But the minute it warms up, it runs perfect, or so I think.  Someone said it might be in the computer.  So I decided to take the computer out and have a look at it.  After I took it apart, I couldn't believe what I saw, a stage two Jet super chip that said for off-road use only.  Then it hit me, oh ####!  I have been running 87-octane gas ever since I bought the truck and never thought twice about it.  Anyway, I remember reading that running low octane gas can be bad for your engine if you have a chip in it.  Does anybody think I did any damage?  To make matters worse, I went on their website and looked up the chips model number, and it turns out that the chip was designed for a automatic transmission with OD, and I have the 5-speed.  Does anybody think this will hinder the performance?  Does this also mean my rev limiter, and top speed increase?  Need help big time on this one.  Thanks,

PM 95Yukon, he runs a Stge 2 Jet in his and seems pretty knowledgable about this stuff.
