LOL, for sure.
It would have to be a machine error or a dramatic change in atmospheric conditions for that to happen wouldn't it?

G/L with the dyno.

It will learn faster after a reset because you'll be farther off the mark right away. Either is fine, but reset results in the quickest immediate result.
