Thanks,

I'll be along.

Just out of interest, and without meaning to (re)open the can of worms, does anyone from around homebush have a more central location suggestion?

Hope to see a big turn out this time!

I'll be there!

Duncan, I happened to pass a pub while leaving Eastern Creek last Sunday that seemed to have a nice beer garden with no one in it :P

Can't remember what it was called...it was heading back towards Parramatta...

Yeah check with kel I think she lives around there somewhere...??? :P

Every time i go thru Homebush i start to tremble, thoughts of the 6 years at Homebush Boys and all the mental anguish and abuse one was forced to endure in a Boys school.

Happy to go wherever the masses choose, but four seasons, four meetings, four compass roses, tells me we should have our summer meeting somewhere coastal, winter in the south, spring in the west, and autumn in the north.

Im going to now run and duck for cover. Im not coming out until the 1st June

rofl @ Roy :bahaha:

Majanal...dunno, um i didn't see a drive in? :confused:

it was on the Western highway or whatever it's called, and it had a driveway into it, and was kind of all on it's own (ie, just paddocks and stuff around it). It was about 5-10 mins from EC heading back towards Parramatta...

recon sounds like it is needed... shell can drive as she knows the pub she is talking about... we'll just navigate to the other pubs in the area that need to be looked at!

I reckon it is the Prospect pub. Maybe we should do a recon.

Yep i think that was it Bonkers!!

hehe Majanal, if we're visiting pubs, i sure as hell ain't driving :P

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
