Betrand Gachot....... who? thats right, who the f**k was he.....

He was, irrefutably, the man. Well before he got chucked in jail for assault anyway.

Sato: Learned all ne knows from Andrea De Cesaris.

Michael Andretti: Just because he has a famous name doesn't mean...

Perry McCarthy: The Stig never quite made it in F1. :blink:

Nigel Mansell - If the eybrows havent got you, the personality will!

Allain Prost - The proffesor - nice nose by the way.

Flavio Briatore - The most beautiful man in the cosmos!

Fernando Alonso - Anything you can do, i can do better.

Lewis Hamilton - I can do anything better than you!!!

you are like some kind of cyborg now troy. brisby Mk. 2. better than the original in almost every way. we should call you robocop. shame they couldn't do anything for ya mug while you were on the table though....

I mean, being as good looking as you are must cause all kinds of problems with being mobbed by hot chicks and what not. ;):D

Nigel Mansell - If the eybrows havent got you, the personality will!

What about the mo! He should never have shaved it off...

Jacques Villeneuve - Just cos daddy could drive, doesn't mean you can

Gilles Villeneuve - would be so disappointed....greatest driver to never win the title

Any excuse to get sponge baths from nurses for a few weeks :D

I tell all the girls i crashed at Croft in an F3 car when i was racing for Carlin Motorsports in British series. Ruined my career :bunny:

Best feasable chick/injury story ever!!! :D:D

Nope, good as a bought one :) I farked my wrist and have pins in it as well. It gives me lots of trouble. I tell all the girls i crashed at Croft in an F3 car when i was racing for Carlin Motorsports in British series. Ruined my career :D

lol, how does that work out for you?

Not as good as the one where i was a Seahawk pilot and i binned a 20 million dollar chopper trying to land on a frigate in bad weather. Thankfully i was the only one hurt with the crew all being ok!

But the best is i was skiing in France with my fiancee where we were caught in an avalanche. She died, i spend 2 months in a French hospital. LOL, i have so many!

lol, that stroy wont work on chicks. they will say one of three things: "what the hell is F3?" or "where the hell is croft" or "who the hell is Carling Motorsport" or possibly a combination of the three. it will however work on car weeners like our goodselves and I'm sure will earn you many a free beer. embelish the story a little though. say it was mark webber who punted you off as it was the last race of the year and you were ahead on points. tell them he got the minardi drive because your injury took you out of the running. it's the little touches....

    • @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.
