Also, goto thirdgen.org.  http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/diy-prom/ It 
appears to me that you tell the ecm what fuel you are running by changing 
the stoichiometric constant to that of the desired fuel... but you should 
read all the "stickies" at this site.  These guys have got the ecm all 
figured out.
