fuse pull

Just pulling my fuse's for the first time as I am unsure what kind of fuel was used before me but there seems to be different times on how long to leave them out. Anyone know the exact time.

...And the discrepency continues...

I, like most people, took them out in the evening then replaced them the next morning.

Some people like to do over kill. An hr is probably fine.

As per manufacturer recommendations, you should wait 3-4 years before replacing them.




:troll:

Really, though, my buddy who did it said an hour should do, but he left it overnight. Better safe than sorry, right?

Would be better if you understood why you need to wait. Probably has to do with the type of memory the data is stored and needs to discharge.

like Scott and PQ mine was an early, nonperforming L99, I couldn't wait to see if it would work, so only waited ONE hour, it worked, and only 93 octane since, dealer put in 87 when I picked it up, back then they did not know better.
Never have had to pull them again.
