I installed the 87 octane predator tune on my V6 mustang and i keep getting check engine codes for running rich/stuck rich on both o2 sensor banks, the cruise control stops working as well. when i restore to factory settings everything works with no check engine lights. no mods on the car. Please help

I also cannot find an update file for the predator on the website, i bought the predator second hand from someone who has not updated it in 5 years

even if i only modify the stock tune and try to turn up the fuel to air ratio a tiny bit to account for my cold air intake as soon as i takeoff the car acts funny then i get a check light for that same "unknown" code...

Still not resolved. Car runs flawlessly until tune is loaded.

read them out of the tool using ds downloader and save them somewhere. then go to reply to this thread and your will see towards the bottom "upload attachment". you can add them there. :)
