On the 951? The 951 does not have a 'memory'. There is nothing to reset.

I know I'm correct
The DME does not have any non-volatile memory, besides the EPROM (which the DME can't change the code).

What kind of issues are you having?

failed emissions. high CO and high HC. which is EXACTLY the opposite of what i expected. i was expecting high NOx.

i think my air filter was plugged.

i checked the voltage coming from the O2 sensor: .3V at idle, dropping to .15 or so revved. i thought it was supposed to be around .8V at idle. can someone confirm?

Hmm, O2 should cycle once the car is warmed-up and in closed-loop. It should cycle around .5v when in closed-loop.

Might have a bad O2.

new O2 sensor reads .9V at idle and heated up. the 951 passed emissions, with significantly better numbers.

Conversely, you could say that it gets reset every time the ignition is turned off.

Eh - semantics. The 951 does not have a 'fuel trim' or other resident memory feature...

Looks like, technically speaking, you got me on that one. What can I say? - nice job!
