Pull the + / - off the battery. let it sit for 20 minutes. Reattach the +/- and turn on the car. Let it idle for 10-15 minutes. Done.


-Edit-

Exactly like I said.

"Start the car and let it warm up
Turn the car off
Pull the ECU fuse under the hood -or- disconnect the battery
Let it sit for at least 5 minutes
Reconnect the ECU fuse under the hood -or- Reconnect the battery
Start the car again and let it idle for 5 minutes (don't be pressing the gas or listening to the stereo or anything)
Turn the car off
Start it back up and have fun driving.
Or you can leave the ECU alone and it will slowly adjust over 6 months or so."
