Looking for Old tuners from DIY GM ECM and ...

Post by EagleMark »

I have a lot of old articles I copied on my computer from places like GM DIY ECM and others that I would like to save and publish on a website. But I think I should have permission to duplicate them rather then just post them up with the authors name. Pretty sure they would say OH or they wouldn't have made the articles for public veiw in the first place.

Reason I started copying them is the GM DIY ECM website and mailing list has lost a lot of origanal links to stuff and the ones I was interested in to refer back to were starting to dissapear.

Here are some of the authors names:
Robert Rauscher
ECMGUY
Bruce Plecan
Dave Zug
Shannen Durphey


If anyone has an article or old article you would like to save and share contact me.

Robert Rausher is RBob on TGO

Bruce Plecan passed away a few years ago.

Haven't heard anything from ECMGUY in years.

The others I haven't heard of.

just for reference, Bruce Plecan = Grumpy.

and just as a rule of thumb, these guys all contributed to the DIY movement and readily gave away their work, if i had to guess, i'd say they would be happy to have their work distributed, so long as their names were attached and anyone could access them freely.

That's what I figured and that's what I did after contacting Robert and he told me of Grumpy and ECMGUY passing away. he also told me the same thing about sharing their work with proper credits do.

The only ones that could still be around and I haven't found are
Dave Zug
Shannen Durphey

Well it looks like we lost GM EFI DIY again! I've been trying to get on there a couple days now and nothing... I hope it comes back it would be sad to see all that work and information gone forever...

Kind of strange we lost the Monadax website too that catered to TunerCats OBDII and the Jet Dynamic Spectrum tuner. It too has been gone for a few days...

Another noob (beginner I guess) and have been going around the Internet looking at ECM tuning and have extracted for my own use several articles from the likes of Grumpy. I've saved them to my computer as Word files.

Anyone interested?

Sure! We have a spot on the web for things like that now. You can email them to me and I will put them up.

Or just stop by:
http://www.eagle-mark.com/Forums/

Also include author date and permission if you have those things. If not we will look into it. I don't want to piss anyone off....
