Then get back in gear (bump-start if EOC) and do another pulse. Repeat repeat repeat...
I find slightly better results at lower rpm - centered at 1700 or so - instead of the 2000+ the charts usually show.

The chart I linked seems to show 3000 RPM as the best?
I don't understand, if I am at 3000 RPM, how do I know if I am at 25, 50, or 80 torque?
