Sick of random misfire, too cheap for dsmlink

Can I just buy a pocketlogger cable (I have a palm) and reset the CELs with that? That would fix my problem right

I really want DSMlink but I dont have the money for it

Reseting the CEL isn't going to cure an existing problem. All your going to do is get rid of the light and it will come back eventually.

Also give some more info about the car and what the hell you are talking about. What you are saying is pretty vague.

Re: Sick of random misfire, too cheap for dsmlink

It's a 1995 GS-T with a 6 Bolt Swap, 14B, 660CC, Walbro 255LPH, Aeromotive AFPR, ACT2100. Swap done by QPR, Dyno Tuned at Elite Autosport

The car works 100% great until it throws the random misfire code, then all hell breaks loose (people with random misfire problem know what I mean) then I have to go get the codes reset with a code reader.

All I really want to know here is will the pocketlogger be able to reset the ECU codes until I can afford a DSM Link setup

Should have done the RRE version of the 6-bolt into a 2G swap instead of the Magnus way, if you knew you weren't going to get a DSMLink or standalone.

You could buy the Pocketlogger and keep reseting the CEL, if it doesn't happen often enough to drive you crazy. But I guess if it didn't happen constantly, then you would just reset the ECU instead. You might be able to get something cheaper also, like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBDII...65718731QQrdZ1

Doesn't Lightning have something to take care of this issue?

I didnt do the swap, Mike did it. And I honestly didnt know it was an issue, the way it was described to me I wasn't gonna have any problems.

I'm at work and they block ebay but I'll check it out when I get home.

I don't think he ever settled on any true fix for it

Also is anyone here selling a pocketlogger setup?
