Bad MAP sensor, wiring, vac line or electrical noise?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Don't know what's causing this but it is messing up my mojo. I get very short spikes in the MAP signal on my Adaptronic. Keep in mind the logging rate is probably too slow to show how high the spike really goes. I'm guessing atmospheric (101kPa). All I can feel when it happens is a hiccup from the pretty obvious changes in fuel and ignition and everything else that keys off the MAP.

Sadly I haven't had a chance to check the obvious stuff but I guess I could do that...

Is it one data sample wide?

y8s 03-08-2010 11:29 PM

basically. resolution down to about 300ms

nobody has any ideas or nothin?

I only notice it in cruise FWIW.

Any dampening in the VAC line?

dampness or damping?

I'm going to yank it all out and check it this weekend I guess.

If you lack damping in the vac line you should see periodic noise in it when you raise the time resolution to max.

UPDATE. Still doing the weird spikey thing.

Ive swapped in a megasquirt style map sensor (along with its RC circuit) like this:

For reference, the vac line is long, like 3 feet. There is no "damping" other than compressibility of air, but I can't imagine it'd do something like that.
