Quick Help? Low Vac/Idle issues on install, no A/F readings
EDIT:
Figured out the low vac reading, crimped line I think. No longer running rich after that problem, however, at time Megasquirt is reading really high KPa readings...like, above 100...at idle, N/A. Any way to calibrate the MAP sensor I'm not aware of? |
Did you check the intake manifold front to back, side to side? There are a couple on the intake manifold that are hard to spot.
Did you check all of you IC pipes for a sloppy coupler? Vash- |
was your cas set to 10* when running on the stock ECU?
what is your trigger angle in MS? do you have a trigger angle addition set? are you running off the timing map or do you have it set to a constant 10*? If there isn't a vacuum leak then next thing would be fuel or spark. I'd suggest setting your spark angle in MS to a constant 10* and slowly rotate the CAS until you get the best idle. Then tweak the fuel. Then tweak the CAS. It took me a little while to get a good idle also. |

Is your aem correlating with the ms on megatune? Make sure your aem ground is grounded at the back of the head with the ecu, That gave me problems on mine. I had to lean my base map idle aswell as richen my cruise. Good Luck. |

Get starter fluid or carb cleaner and spray it on your vacuum connections. If there is a leak, it will suck the fluid in and the car will idle up. My aem reads no richer than 10. 10afr will foul some plugs pretty quick at idle.

IDK, I didn't check. Should I try to do that instead? what is your trigger angle in MS? 61 do you have a trigger angle addition set? Pretty sure it is adding in I haven't touched it from the base map, set to +22.5 are you running off the timing map or do you have it set to a constant 10*? It will do this on both, having a hard ass time trying to set base timing, I know it is with a degree or two, but it jumps back/forth when the timing light is set -/+ 1 degree. Here is another odd point, MS is reading a HIGH KPa...as in around 2k RPMs it read as high as 125.....the car is N/A...I thought it should not exceed 100. I have the MAP/Boost line hooked up to the FPR line...yes/no/maybe? |
Alright, swapped back to stock ECU.
AFRs are 12.7 at idle and 10* before top dead center. So it is something is MS, gotta figure this out. |
