Put the car on the scanner & let the machine bring down the idle to 700 rpm & 6 degrees TDC.BTW there is a sticker on the underside of the hood.

Good question wagonrunner.

chemical, does that machine reflash / write new values to the ECU's rom? that's the only way those values would be permanent.

It reflashes the ECU.

then why not disconnect battery for a couple minutes? or clear the self-learn?

adjusting operating parameters DOES NOT reflash the ECU. :?

So therefore it replaces the entire ROM on the ECU?

Because you cannot flash "part" of the ROM's data. You'd have to reflash the entire thing - reuse the original mapping + the modified values.
