The problematic one is the one I posted. Waiting for Brain to send me a new one. I did request for control of the AC fan relay, which was implemented through the ALED output.
Could it be possible that I inadvertenly uploaded the practice project i created to check out the features of TS when I first connected the laptop, erasing brain's preloaded map? Meaning I caused all this myself?![facepalm](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/facepalm.gif)

Uploaded the attached msq from Braineack, and it cleared the config error! Started the car, and it runs! A bit like crap for now.
When I switched to fixed timing, it died on me. Wouldn't start for a while until I turned the idle screw a bit to give it more air.
But when it's nice and hot, it won't start. It cranks, but won't catch on.
Could anyone assist? I attached 3 datalogs. 1st cold, 2nd stable, third hot cranking.
Checked the plugs, they were kinda sooty.
Just a liiiitlle moooore....![vash](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/vash.gif)
EDIT: After cleaning the plugs, the car started up easily, idles smoother. And of course, now my timing light is acting up! AAAARRRGGG. Gotta borrow another one...
Dash screenies. Everything looking OK?

No tps, set to 254/255
Tried disconnecting the vacuum line to the box, map still reads 100! Strong fuel smell, plugs are wet and sooty again.
Shop's closing. Dammit.
Wait- aren't my map readings way off? What should I be seeing at idle?
EDIT: Sorry, at this point, I lost my mind. Quite clearly. LOL

This is quickly getting over my head.
Why did I suddenly get an error code when I loaded the msq from Braineack, which loaded perfectly this morning? Car was idling fine, see above data logs...
Attaching log of the last cranking attempt.

Will change to new plugs tomorrow. And pray for a better day.
