I just took my Power commander out of the box and plugged it in and started running it with the factory tune and it has helped a lot but now when you first start it she dies then you have to keep cranking it tell she fired back up once she fires up she is fine tell you let her sit for more then 10 mins.. I've never tuned in a computer and would like some help thank you

Might try setting the fuel table at 0% throttle to 0 instead of 6. It is 6 from 1250 rpm to 2250 rpm. It's pretty rich at 6% more fuel at idle. Think mine liked -2. Some others have been around -6.

Spark plugs could be fouled. Buddy has one on his wildcat and his plugs went bad pretty quick. Until he tuned it better
