Got a good runner now, I'm not sure if it was due to the plugs (LINK recommended resistor type) or if it was due to my terrible and sloppy engine wiring harness.
Mike Rose came by yesterday and gave me hand with the harness, much easier with 2 people to route the wires thru the car. LINK ECU is now mounted inside the cabin...I removed I think 6 wires completly from the harness which I have no use for in my application, I also shortened the other wires by about 3 feet. Still figuering out the tuning thing....I think I might end up putting a TPS on it since the vac. only is a PITA at idle since my vac. signal seems to vary from 35kPa to 65kPa each time I release the throttle (1.7 intake system with stock throttle body) Car starts and idles fine, I tried to drive it up the street and it's too lean...not sure if it was during acceleration or just under load at that particlur MAP setting..... I'm a happy camper and I'll be even happier when I figure out how to tune the computer better (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/MDB2.gif) |

Hey Tim,
Yep, that is pretty much how I was tuning it...problem I am now having is that I cannot seem to get enough fuel during acceleration, I've played with the "accel" inputs and they are not doing it for me. I'll e-mail LINK and hopefully they'll be able to tell me what I am doing wrong. I switched the setting from VACUUM to MAP and then to MAP+TPS (with no TPS) and it actually ran best at MAP+TPS (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) ..the accel is still wackey, but no big deal right now. Now that I got this far, I'll pull off the throttle body and install a new TPS onto it, I'll be needing the TPS for sure with my next intake setup so I might as well learn how to tune it. Andrew, if I'm back from Louisiana in time I'll try to make the V8 meet. |
