[Gmecm] More '730/$8D tuning questions...

Mitch,
The trouble I'm having now is with code uploaded to the emulator, not burned
to a chip.  So far, I've burned 4 or 5 different chips, all roughly based on
the same .bin, and have had no problems.  In fact, if I switch .bins from
one of the AXXC or AXXD-based .bins back to one of my modified originals,
the running problem goes away.  This happens even when the car is running...
there's a small hiccup when I upload, then the engine smoothes right out.
Strange.  It's almost as if as Robin had surmised earlier that the AXXC and
AXXD might not be $8D bins.  I'm WAY out of my comfort zone thinking about
that kind of issue, though.

Clair
