JS8 is what I'm using-- goes straight to pin11 in the proper location for the cap. Don't go higher than .1uf without proper testing, you could filter out the 2nd trigger altogether...
Guys-- this was the entire holdup on the MM9697. Some of he earlier cars have an occassional hiccup and some never even have that, but the 96-97 cars, about half of them at least, are nasty without this low pass filter cap (really it's a two piece filter circuit, but the resistor was already in circuit). I spent days on the dyno with the scope ;). Fun stuff, but I was ready for it to be over... I'm SO glad it's nailed... |
because the MSII board is different, see the notes below the diagram.
JS8 is our tach input on the MSI CPU. |

The CAN chip is only there on an MS-II daughter card; it took over an output that the MS-I's base code did not use. MS-Is (including the MSPNP) have no CAN capability.

I'm SO glad you nailed it, I wouldn't have had a clue how to figure that sucker out. and now I have a completely missfire free car it's bliss :) Would've been easier to solder the leg to JS8 too...... nevermind! |

Matt was a big help in the process, as was James and even Bruce Bowling was brought in for his input along the way. It was an international effort ;).
|
And a great one at that. I was having the occasional misfire and this fix solved it for me too.
|
So...could we bring in our existing MSPNPs for you guys to do this mod, so we can run high-res? ...don't want to "void the warranty" (I'd pay the shop charges, of course)
|
On the earlier models if you're not seeing the miss with the standard code it's pretty likely you won't with hi-res, but we are more than happy to fit the cap for you at no charge. I don't think everyone will care to, and don't think it's really needed unless you're seeing an issue as it's the 96-97's that really had a problem here, and to a much smaller extent some of the earlier cars. As I said though we're happy to fit it for you at no charge. All new units going forward are going to have this in place, we're changing the spec right now.
|
You truly are a business for the people ;) Hopefully I can give HighRes a try sometime in the nearish future.
|
So just to clarify, by adding this capacitor, there would still be a benefit for the non-PNP megasquirt guys running the standard code (assuming they get the random miss)?

yay, if i only had a car to test this with.
Going to try on Brad's as he has a mis in boost that didnt go away with cops. |
My car is running sweet now on HR10d2. Thanks to the international effort! :bigtu:
|
Are you guys running unchanged maps with hi-res without any issues? Just easytherming hi-res, flashing, loading your old map untouched (maybe changing those 2 or 3 .01 values to .1 so as to get rid of the warning flagged in audit.log) and then you're all good?
Just curious on your results here... |
Richy said he was able to lean his idle out substantially, dropping VE values like 10-15 to get closer to 14:1 with 550 high-z injectors.
I hope to do the same as well. |

If you don't have a 96-97 you might not even need the capacitor. Try it without it first to see if you're having problems without it. Then go and void your warranty.
