Monster Fuel Injection ECU Flash

[wmh9680]

well I just got my ecu back from Monster. I drained the old gas out and bought 4 gallons of 93 octane to put in.

I was in the garage (kinda dimly lit) trying to reinstall the ecu in my 2014 RT LTD and could not get the plug to seat all the way in. Any tricks here? Thanks, Mike

It can take a little patients getting it lined up.
Make sure the the round black tab on the front side is sliding into the swivel lock.
Take your time and just be careful not to bend any of the pins...

Thanks, Hopefully I will look at it this am. Yeah, I was worried about the pins. Mike

Suggest marking "OUT" side of ECU

When you hold an ECU the logical way it looks to be installed is backwards. I suggest marking the ECU with a marker.
Remember to allow a full tank of gas for the full effects of the flash to take hold. Then go out in 3rd gear at 4000 rpm and hold it open to red line. This is where the you''ll first notice the new performance. It does't seem to matter if the exhaust is all stock or free flowing. For me on my RT, I really enjoyed merging or passing up on the interstate without thinking about downshifting.
