I've never had this happen in the 5 years I've had the AEM EMS. This is weird and what setting on the AEM would cause this? Maybe something is set up wrong.

I had e-manage blue... Maybe there was pressure in the crankcase?

I was at a light and killed it (stupid Iron man clutch) when trying to restart it popped and sorta made a buzzing sound and then started running, didn't sound right but I needed to get out of the intersection, I let the clutch out and the car started backing up. I killed it imediately, jumped out and told the folks behind me to go around, I figured it was messed up. Got in and restarted it and it ran fine, though it was idling high due to a popped vacuum hose. I called my tuner as soon as I got into work and he said he'd never heard of it before except in a diesel. I've had 2 stroke dirt bikes catch wrong and run backward but I didn't think a modern engine could do it w/out messing stufff up. I't been fine since. I think it's a little rich on a hot start and need to get it adjusted.
Wow I have never heard of that before. That's craziness, I didn't even think that was possible

Same here. Mine started doing this after I switched to ID 1000s. Seems to happen more often when its hot and humid out, but that may not be related.

RC's here. Both peak and hold and the saturated variety have caused these symptoms.
