So, I started using % Engine Load again. The numbers still seem screwy to me.

5th gear, ~30% TPS, 2200rpm = 90% load?
Neutral, foot off throttle, 600rpm = 25% load?

25% load at idle, and 90% at 30% throttle? WOT puts it at 99%.

On my Silverado, idle was about 5-10% load. And opening the throttle to 30% at low rpms put me around 30-35% load. Are the numbers screwy or am I just used to seeing them on a much different engine?
