you boys been hitting up st kilda pier lately?

are there any snappers around?

but then again, my longest rod is 6foot, so i dont think i'll be hitting any fair distance with that.

and lake rowville? where's that?

dunno. dont have a lift for the next time we go since everyones on red p's and passenger restrictions n shit

we usually go to the gazebo next to the spirit of tasmania at night, right thru to the early hours of the morning lol

Fishing only here, no homo-ing, its srs bsns, will go try, half whiting okay as bait?

i usually throw a whiting on ganged hooks on one of my heavy rods just incase something big is out there

yeh no homo lol

its more of a kickback then a fishing sesh. we usually get some pizza n drinks n shit

heading to sugarloaf tomorrow morning.

heard good things about the yellow bellies, so, hopefully they hit lures that i'm used to using.

Let me know how you go. Went to sugarloaf few weeks back and didn't get one bite. This was a Sunday morning 9-1000 with clear skies. I was using diving hardbodies and soft plastics like camo worms and minnows.

Also went on a chartered fishing boat last weekend on Port Phillip Bay leaving St Kilda Pier. Pretty unlucky - we had 12 guys and we caught 1 snapper and about 3 legal flatties. Snapper were schooling under sounder but just not biting. Perfect 25deg sunny day with clear skies, small wind. If you wanted to just land a fish though, it was incredibly easy to hook up undersize flatties with bait jigs (few guys got quadruple flatties). And we caught a lot of annoying starfish.

Well, i've heard good things about sugarloaf, so i'm gonna try my luck for the yellas or some rainbows.. and i'm wondering if anyone would like to join me.

Snapper bite more at night, that's what i've realised fishing malaysia/indonesia, and big ones at that, I will be going for snapper soon too, but prior to that, will be an evening session at mt martha for some real fresh squid, that should get the fish biting...

Any aussie salmon? They're real fun on light tackle.

    • @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.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
