Is low throttle supposed to fluctuate?

I have my low throttle setting set to +5% @ 1000 rpm. When I'm driving the car it will drop to 0.0% and fluctuate all the way back to +5. Is this normal or is my S-AFC shorting out on me?

What will fluctuate? You mean that in the low-throttle setting you added 5% at 1k rpm, but then when you are driving something is dropping to 0%? Your settings don't move...and you don't view the settings mode when driving anyway. You view the Monitor mode with whatever parameters you choose. What exactly is changing while you're driving?

If ur settings are at +5 at 1000 then u will only see that correcton at 1000. I guess that's what your asking? What I'm saying is if that is yourr only correction setting than you will only see that around 1000rs. I don't know about u but the only time u will see that is at idle. Still not sure what ur asking tho.

It will stay at +5 if you set it that way for every parameter, can I ask why you are adding 5% fuel at idle?

Cause I have HKS 272 cams and my car kept stalling, I was told if I did +5% @ 1k rpm on low throttle it would help. So when I'm driving I have it set to show my low throttle and it drops to 0.0. Is this because when I'm driving the rpm is not at 1k?

That is correct. It will only show correction at around the point u set the correction for
