IMPORTANT

• The Power Programmer for GM LT1/LT4 vehicles is legal

for sale or

use on California pollution-controlled motor vehicles according

to the

CARB Executive Order process. In the interest of improved air quality,

the California Air Resources Board (CARB) requires new vehicle and

manufacturers of aftermarket parts to develop engine and emissions

equipment that either reduce or maintain specific air pollutants affected

by vehicle use. Both the California Vehicle Code (section 27156) and

Federal Clean Air Act (administered by the Environmental Protection

Agency) prohibit modifications that increase vehicle emissions.

Aftermarket parts manufacturers, particularly in the high-performance

segment, are required to obtain CARB approval in the form of executive

Orders (E.O.s) for any product not qualifying as a direct replacement

for an original equipment part. Hypertech includes meeting all E.O.

requirements in its product development process. This guarantees

that users of Hypertech “Power Tuning” products will meet certification

requirements when registering, selling, or needing to pass various

emissions tests or Inspection and Maintenance (I&M) programs

administered by state or local enforcement agencies. Make sure

that any emissions-related product you buy and install carries an E.O.

number or is pending an E.O. Without this verification you are at

risk, in potential violation of regulations and may incur unnecessary

financial obligations during vehicle inspections or emissions tests.

A CARB E.O. sticker is supplied. Keep this sticker in your vehicle or

attach it inside the door jam as proof that the Power Programmer is

street legal.

• Your vehicle’scomputer will not be programmed at the end

of the programming menus until you select “PRESS ‘Y’ TO

BEGIN PROGRAMMING” on page 15. Feel free to experiment

with the programming choices without the fear of accidentally

programming the wrong thing into your vehicle computer.

You can make any choice that you want to, change it again

and again, without programming it into your vehicle computer

until you are absolutely ready.

•While the programmer is programming:

*DO NOT leave the vehicle while programming is in process.

*DO NOT program your vehicle without a fully charged battery.

If after you have programmed your vehicle’s computer with the

Hypertech Power Programmer, you decide to change the tuning,

It is recommended that you recharge your vehicle’sbattery.

You may either drive the vehicle to charge the batteryor use a

batterycharger.But either way,MAKE surethat the battery

holds a full charge.

*DO NOT disturb the cable while programming.

*The ONLYtime you may remove the programmer cable from

the DLC safely is PRIOR to pressing ‘Y’ to program your

entries. However, any programming choices you have made

WILL NOT be saved. NOTE: It is NOT safe to unplug the

programmer cable any time AFTER you have pressed ‘Y’ to

program.

*DO NOT turn the key off UNLESS

instructed by the programmer.

*DO NOT start the engine.

Any of these actions will interrupt the programming process.

The programmer is designed to recover from these conditions,

but they should be avoided.

• You will achieve best performance if you replace your

stock thermostat with a Hypertech 160° or 180° PowerStat.

The programmer will work with a stock thermostat but our

best performance tuning was specifically developed for a

cooler running engine.

• Hypertech Power Tuning was developed for premium grade

gasoline (the highest octane rating available in your area).

Make sure you have premium gasoline in your vehicle

before installing Hypertech’s engine Power Tuning.

HYPERTECH POWER PROGRAMMER III

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS OVERVIEW

Congratulations! You are the owner of the Power Programmer III,

the latest in high-performance tuning technology. Now you can optimize

your engine’s tuning, as well as adjust other vehicle parameters

(see table of contents), all at the touch of a button.

Your vehicle has an onboard computer that controls the engine

and transmission. Inside your vehicle’scomputer is a FLASH

memory chip which contains the vehicle’s programming. The

programmer actually reprograms this FLASH computer chip,

according to your specifications, with Hypertech’s Power Tuning.

This is the only way an individual can reprogram some 1994-1995

and all 1996 and newer vehicles sold in the United States.

To reprogram your vehicle’s computer, simply plug the

programmer cable into the vehicle’s diagnostic connector

located under the dash panel on the driver’s side. Set the parking

brake. Next, turn the ignition key to RUN but do not start the

engine. Press the sarrow on the programmer.It will then identify

your vehicle and display a series of options on its screen. When

completed, turn the key to OFF and disconnect the cable from the

diagnostic connector.Now you’re ready to Feel the Power!

Hypertech’s Power Tuning can be stored in only one (1)

vehicle at a time. The Power Programmer can be reconnected

to remove the Power Tuning and return the vehicle to the factory

programming at any time. After you have performed this step,

your vehicle will be in its stock configuration.

You may also reconnect your programmer at any time to change

the programming. For example, if you have replaced your factory

tires with different diameter tires, you will want to correct your

speedometer, odometer, and automatic transmission shift points.

Simply reconnect your programmer, answer the necessary option(s),

and reprogram your vehicle. You do not have to return to stock first.

SECTION 1: POWERSTAT INSTALLATION

Tools and supplies required

8mm socket and ratchet

1/4” flathead screwdriver

DEX-COOL anti-freeze coolant (GM part #1234-6290)

Part#1008 - 160° PowerStat

Part #1022 - 180° PowerStat

See Figures A or B. Disconnect the intake air temperature sensor

connector located in the air intake duct between the mass air

flow sensor and the throttle body.

2. Use a flathead screwdriver to loosen the clamps on the air

intake duct and remove the duct.

3. With the radiator cap on, remove the two (2) thermostat

housing bolts. Remove the thermostat housing leaving the

radiator hose attached to expose the stock thermostat. A small

amount of coolant may be lost at this point.

4. Lift out the stock thermostat. Use a screwdriver to gently pry,

if necessary. Clean all the sealing surfaces.

5. Make sure that the rubber “O” ring is positioned flat side

down on the PowerStat. Next, install the PowerStat, making

sure that it’s positioned correctly (spring end facing down into

intake manifold).

6. Reinstall the thermostat housing and bolts. Torque the bolts to

7ft.-lbs.

7. Remove the radiator cap (or coolant reservoir cap on

Corvette). Place a rag or towel under the pressure side bleed

screw on the thermostat housing to prevent coolant from

splashing on the distributor. Open the pressure side bleed

screw while watching the coolant level in the radiator (or

coolant reservoir on Corvette). The coolant level will drop

when the bleed screw is fully opened.

8. Slowly fill the radiator with the DEX-COOL coolant. Close

the bleed screw when the bubbles disappear and only coolant

is escaping from the bleed screw.At this point, finish filling

the radiator and reinstall the radiator cap.

IMPORTANT:

NEVER MIX ORDINARYANTI-FREEZE (GREEN)

WITH THE DEX-COOL ANTI-FREEZE (ORANGE)

OR YOU MAYDAMAGE THE COOLING SYSTEM.

•

WARNING: NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHANGE

A THERMOSTAT ON A HOT ENGINE

•

SERIOUS INJURY CAN OCCUR IF THE

RADIATOR CAP IS REMOVED WHILE THE

COOLING SYSTEM IS HOT

•

THE ENGINE SHOULD ALWAYS BE COLD

WHEN INSTALLING THE POWERSTAT

NOTE: After installing the

PowerStat, if any coolant

needs to be added to the

vehicle, make sure you

put the same color coolant

back into the vehicle. If

your vehicle has orange

coolant, replace with orange

coolant. If green, replace

with green.

9. Reinstall the mass air flow sensor side of the air intake duct.

To install the throttle body side of the duct, use the flathead

screwdriver to secure the lower side of the duct onto the

underside of the throttle body, then work the sides and the top

of the duct onto the throttle body assembly.

10. Tighten the hose clamp using the flathead screwdriver.

11. Reconnect the intake air temperature sensor connector.

12. Start the vehicle and allow it to warm up to normal operating

temperature.

13. Check the coolant level in the radiator overflow/fill reservoir

and fill as needed.
