So, I will need a Flex Fuel sensor and then the ECM is going to adjust timing automatically when it senses the % of E that I have in the mix?
This automatic timing adjustment is going to be based on my existing tune, correct?
What is the sensor calibration procedure that is necessary after the installation?

Stock ECM & stock tune will not adjust timing vs E content. Will require flexfuel sensor and new tune as stated above. The tune will populate the flexfuel adder table which adds timing based on E content. This flexfuel timing table adds/subtracts from your base high octane timing table. There is no sensor calibration procedure to my knowledge. I don’t remember doing anything special when I added my sensor 6+ years ago.
