Vance & Hines FP3 Fuelpak Autotune Beginning To End On My Harley Davidson 

I appreciate you making this video. I’ve had the FP3 for almost a year and haven’t used auto tune out of fear. This video took those fears away and once the weather is good I’m going for it. Thanks for the good video.

I’ve been riding for 2 years but didn’t have the nerve to try the Autotune until now. I will certainly be doing it tomorrow. Thank you.

Manifold absolute pressure. Works like a mass airflow sensor on a car. It's how it measures the amount of air coming into the engine

I had a 17 softail. Ran it on auto tune. Ran sorta crappy in auto tune. But it's supposed to. Once all of your blocks on auto tune are filled, you flash the new map you made, then it runs great!

Don’t you hate that little fraction of a second when you hit the start button and it kinda sounds like it ain’t gonna fire! Lol, gets me every time.

Excellent video on the FP3 auto tune Carl. I couldn't wait I just ordered my stage 1. Cobra 909 Speedster exhaust, Arlen Ness Big Sucker air cleaner, and Vance & Hines FP3 tuner. I can't wait to install it all. I also adjusted my suspension for my weight and it makes a huge difference. Thanks for the video. 👍

It'll only change the map when you apply the learned autotune settings. You could ride around all day but if you don't apply it, nothing will change.

After watching this video I’m going to order mine on Monday, thanks for sharing

Thanks for posting this. It would be nice if the cells didn’t clear when you choose to “add” the current session so you could keep watching the map develop. I’m on my third session next week and will probably select “finish” after that one.

This video is what inspired me to try out the fp3. Been having a stutter at low mph and rough running. Got this and tried the auto tune today. Helped a lot but I feel I need to run it longer. I only rode around for about an hour.

Thanks for this video. Put stage 1 on my Freewheeler and flashed proper map from my FP3 and ran great with only one kind of flat spot in first gear. So I did an autotune and just like yours it ran like crap. So I stopped the autotune and went back to the flashed map. After watching your video I am going to do the autotune again now that I know what happened was normal.

I just got the FP3...this was a good tutorial thanks

Right on Carl! I just bought my pipes and I was reviewing all the info about this FP3 Great video.

I had so much fun today. I wish I knew I had 3 RPM Screens to help me dail it in on the auto tune. But this is where the fun began doing 45 rpm to 55 rpm zoom zoom zoom. Lol . It was a blast and the best thing I didn't get a speeding ticket. So now I just have to do the 1st screen of the RPM THE 2ND Screen is almost complete then I only have the the last rpm screen then finished send it to Vance and Hins to let them dail it in for the final touch then I play with the throttle activity Aggresive throttle here I come. I made a nice square block.

One of the. Enter videos on autotune thanks going to try it on mine this weekend

Your battery seems to be getting old or you have a poor connection somewhere in the starter motor circuit. My 2010 FXSTC does that a lot when it wants to tell me something. If it wasn't so difficult to replace it on my model I'd have an All Balls starter in it by now. Also FWIW, I'd have the bike running in top for before installing a tuner. Clean the air filter and throttle body, put in fresh plugs and so on. You don't want the tuner or autotune to be trying to bandaid a problem with ignition, timing, spark, fuel flow and so on. I was hearing a lot of misfires... could be just the audio cutting out. Of course I have no idea how well (or poorly) your engine was running before you installed the tuner. Great video! Much appreciate the detail you provided.

It is only running rough because it is in tune mode. Once you upload the tune it will be ok. It does not tune on the go, it's just gathering information.

Interesting. I had an '06 Dyna I put a power commander on and no maps that I got from them worked well at all. I spent the money and had it dyno tuned to get it to run right. Hope yours works out well. Ride safe and stay healthy.

I have a 2020 low rider s. And i just bought the fp4, and im here getting some tips on how it works.

I have been back and forth about getting an FP3. This video was helpful actually watching you Auto Tune your Bike. I have heard good and bad about it. It supposed to be very user friendly and helpful in diagnostics. Let us know long term how your bike is running with the Auto Tune. Your videos are informative and helpful. Thanks ride safe

Man I am auto tuning some custom pipes right now it is taking the fuel pac some time but it's working good for me

Great video the only thing I noticed as you didn’t get in your upper rpm range you never got any green box down towards the bottom of your screen and your upper RPMs or with your throttle position open further.

Wow, that's a great video. Your bike is so beautiful. I love the sound of motorcycle exhaustion. I'm glad and honored to be your best channel friend. Have a nice Monday. 👍👍👍🤙🤙🤙👌

Great video!!! Calf Pasture... I knew those places looked familiar... also in Norwalk.. safe riding!!

I had the shop install mine when they changed the pipes. I hit a deer last year and since ive gotten the bike back i feel like the air/fuel ratio is off. Bogging a little an acceleration in the higher rpm range and ive been wanting to try this autotune thing for a while but i fear my lack of fuelpack knowledge may screw things up more. Thanks for this. Ill give it a shot wish me luck 😅

Great video . I’m using auto tune now on my street glide special, doing a few rides w it before I hit finish

I just purchase one today..thanks for feed back

I saved $400 and continue to run factory settings on the ECM and will probably continue to do so, regardless of intake and exhaust upgrades.

Not big on stop signs. Thanks for the video. Will be getting a tuner for my street glide real soon.

I have the fuel pak and only flashed the correct map with my stage one and it has run perfect. No need for auto tune. I have a vance & Hine parts so no real need to auto tune. Just a person preference really. If the people you are running are not vance & Hines then maybe you will have to do an auto tune. I had the 1200 screamin eagle conversion kit installed over the winter. Vance & Hines employee says all I need to do is flash the 1200 conversion map and it all should be fine since the map is specific to the screamin eagle conversion.

I have a 2005 Dyna Wide Glide, fuel injected, I believe this bike is too old for that particular tuner from V&H but I think there's others that work, that's what I've been researching. I noticed my V&H Bigshots or Longshots starting to turn a straw color on the rear pipe a couple months ago and lately the front pipe is a little. I haven't been riding it much because I've been adding things to it, put new brakes and rotors on, new windshield etc. Anyway, after a while it started missing here and there usually at cruise speeds then started popping when I'd decelerate. I put new spark plugs and wires on a few days ago and the missing is gone, I still can't figure out why the pipes started turning gold, maybe the computer leans it out when the spark plugs start going bad, IDK but they were carbon fouled pretty bad, especially the front cylinder, the gap was almost completely closed from carbon on that one. I'm going to talk to the bike mechanic here first, he might be able to throw a tune on it himself, maybe it just needs to be re-mapped....

really informative video,i have a 1200 nightster and have problems around 35-45 mph with the engine searching, when the bike gets back from the shop (major service, new rear master cylinder and a look at the running side of things, maybe mechanic will have sorted it?) if not i will try the auto tune thanks

My bike ran horribly in auto tune and my engine light came on. I got tired of sputtering around too. I’ll probably try it again soon. ✌️

Just wanna say most people run these bikes at to low of an rpm. I seem hear a lot of people complaining about sputtering and what not and I'm hear shifts at like 2500 rpm. When it's more around 3000 and up. I'm no expert, but I've also talked to a master mechanic and he has told me the same thing, I was shifting to early. And running it to low a speed for the gear

Appreciate the video, installing mine tomorrow. Ride safe

great video thanks for the demonstration. also noticed you have some sorta cruise control bracket on your throttle. duno if you know but theres a small thumb wheel your thumb should be able to reach right under your switches on your right hand.. it has a spring on it.. thats your "cruise control" ;)

DONT AUTO TUNE UNLESS YOU HAVE THE WIDE BAND Oxygen sensor year sporty. I have an 07 nightster. Short shots and intake. It runs horrible. Cold start issues. Throttle response issues. Everything. The narrow band O2 sensors in the early models can’t properly tell the software what’s going on. Use the preset tunes. Works amazingly. I had so many issues auto tuning. Once I flashed a pre made tune on my sporty it runs great. More power and torque everywhere without any holes or hiccups.

say that parking lot looks like Nicolet College in Rhinelander. watched some other persons on this, just installed on my bike.

I am surprised the tune was loaded with that killswitch in the off position.

I just put mine in yesterday. Confused if my bike learned anything . But it's fun just the same . Today is gonna be a 6 hrs ride day

Did it get rid of the poping? My bike never popped until harley got ahold of it, dang

great help 👍love from CHINA x48 rider

Really interesting mate....might do it with mine

I’m almost positive I need to map my bike. It sputters when it’s cold and on take off a little

I installed it and rode for a full tank but still runs like shit, backfires like crazy, maybe one green squere and rest are dark. I think I need to do it again from the scratch..

Did you manage to get all the blocks green on the map screen

What kind of phone mount are you using?? Looks pretty steady and tight..

Why do you not stop totally at stop sign?

How would it be doing better in auto-tune if you have an applied the tune yet? I pulled the baffles in naturally Vance and Hines don't approve so they don't have maps for it and it's sputtering pretty badly taking off in first. I'm hoping that today when I put more time on it, it'll run better, then I'm just going to leave it on apply so it automatically does it every time I get on the bike.

Great viedo. But do you ever stop at stop signs? lol

What phone mount do you use?

Nice real review buddy

Hey there great videos. I just installed the Vance and Hines slip ons on my 2021 iron 1200 and I have the FP3 fuel pack on the way. Will that stop all the popping and sputtering ? Thanks and have a good one.

Great video!

I don't think I heard anywhere. How long did it take you to get the whole auto tune done? I have the FP4 but it's taken a while of me just riding around. Still not complete.

Hello ! What about fuel consumption after mapping the bike ?

Yea I think I did something wrong. When I tried to do an auto tune session on my 2016 road king it ran like absolute SHIT, felt like it was running on 1 cylinder and making about 5HP. Quickly went back to a unmodified map, the bike could hardly get out of its own way and didn't learn any cells after about 5 minutes.

Would using the map that’s already on the app work with a stock air cleaner on the iron 1200??

was it worth the money

Carl what type of phone mount do you have? Looks to be very sturdy

I want to get one of these for my 19 1200 but my bike doesn't have a keyed ignition so it looks like its going to lose connectivity when i turn the bike off during mapping/tuning but shouldn't be a big deal.

Hey Carl quick question. So say I go out for the first part of my ride to map the lower RPMs with just city cruising. Then I upload that learned data and continue to go onto the highway to get the higher RPM learned. When I stop to finalize with the higher RPM Learning There will obviously be a few blocks in the lower RPM relearned. So my question is if I plug-in the learn data once I get the lower RPMs green and then I go to the highway for a second session to get the higher RPMs And I pop a couple of oranges in the lower RPMs is that going to save the orange over the green that’s already learned when I finalize? I guess that’s kind of confusing but from the videos I’ve watched people do this in multiple sessions over one day. So they will continuously plug-in the learns data as they go. However once you plug in what you’ve learned it resets the learning map. I would hate to do 2 to 3 uploads before I finalize and then have it save in orange box over something where I already had the green previously. I hope that makes sense LOL

Dude where the hell are you? Hope you’re good. Let us know you’re ok!!!

Quick question, I have a 2015 dyna low rider and with full stage 1 using an FP3. if you do multiple auto tune sessions the result will be combine all together ?

Great video will try auto tune 👍🏼

I bought a 2000 road king that already had some Screamin Eagle upgrades. The problem is I’m not sure exactly what the previous owner did to it. Like what, if any cam or even what size jugs. I think it’s a 95Ci but not 100% sure. Will this give me an idea as to what I’ve got? Or Do I have to know the information first?

Does the FP3 drain the battery when left plugged in all the time?

What kind of phone mount do yiu use

Man... you got 2 bad boys creeping on you 👀

When I start an auto tune, do I have to keep auto tune on all the time until I finish?

Was your boat the big one.

After flashing the 1st session of auto tune did u go back to the same map like before and resumed auto tune?

So in order for it to learn completely or close to it will you have to make elevation changes just wondering how that works ? Thanks

Is your FP3 hooked up while you ride?

Me cells didn’t do anything after a 40min ride. Do I need to keep the FP3 plugged in during the ride?

Thats exit 44 of Merritt? Lol

What bars are those??

Auto tune doesn't change the tune while you're riding target tune does

if you were to have read the instructions you would have known that autotune turns off all of the cold start features of the fuel injection. You need to warm the bike up first if its a cold day.

Love your videos. But I’m still scared to try the auto tune.

What kind of handlebars are those? Dont look like the stock ones?

Hey Carl, what sort of mileage were you getting with the downloadable map before the auto tune? I'm getting around 100km out of mine then the fuel light comes on but it still has around 4 litres in the tank.

Purchased a stage 3 kit for my 103 switchback. Already have the FP3. Would auto tune work with the new cam and other internals or would I just need to get a custom tune?

If you hit the finish button will you still be able to edit it the next day?

Did you notice any power improvement?

Does this void the warranty? Also what cell holder is that.

What does MAP stand for?

all this just to avoid a half hour on a dyno ....

Damnit Carl! Jk thanks man

Dude those cops are conducting surveillance on you. Get rid of any contraband.

You have far to many stop signs! You should go out west and ride!!!
