Ok had a Megasquirt system installed on the 3.0. Much better throttle response and looks oh so sexy. Tuning was something else but it runs pretty well. Two issues:
1. After a cold start, the car is not drivable for at least two minutes, until it warms up. If you try to drive it cold it just stalls. Is this normal behavior? 2. The throttle is a tad touchy. Unless you slowly squeeze the throttle accelerating is like an on/off switch, with a millisecond of hesitation and then off we go. Is that normal or can that be tuned out? |

you may want to indicate what AAR is for the people that dont know. Aux Air Regulator, AKA Idle Air Control (IAC) valve. I don't know about the /6 engines, but the /4 had a VERY rudimentary AAR (the valve just closed about a minute after the car started. A modern IAC/AAR works worlds better. You can find them in 2 wire, 3 wire and 4 wire versions. The IAC that I am using is the 3 wire unit from a Hyundia and cost about $12 on amazon. How you wire them differs depending on which kind of valve you have. Zach |
