Martin: What do you do at powerlink? Please dont tell me you're running on the wheel.

I run on the wheel :(

Lol, you haven't done anything. Colin will explain.

I have a fairly dry sense of humour.

Fair enough, was just checking i hadn't accidentally p*ssed you off by nailing your sister or something :O

FYP

LOL

thats as long as josh lasts

i was disapointed too

Me too :P

P.S. Brandon: I'm in IT, I work on their drawing management system.

I'll probably apply for powerlink if the pay is no good after this graduate program finish this year.

Wheelies FTW!

Maybe origins too. Hahaha.

what do they use? Is it their own system or a third party one? We use Aconex at work n it's not too bad. Some good features but most subbies are computer illiterate so it's wasted on them.

You're in a grad program? When did you finish uni?

bonus of doing a cadetship is I get to skip the graduate stage lol :(

10 hours give or take without complications to do it properly.

So give or take 900 - 1000.

Or half if I give you a a car with no motor to pull out, give or take.

Yea. Finished uni in 2006 and started the program in 2007. So this year will be the last and they'll handing out the contract sometime this week or next. :x

I don't actually work for them directly, I'm there as a contractor/consultant so I can't help you out with an in sorry. What kind of work do you do?

Its a 3rd party one, I actually work for the vendor so I won't go into details.

Nah I'm just saying I'll probably be apply for energy companies if it does happen. But my expectation arent high so chance of me applying for another job is low. I'm an electrical engineer.

Oh wait. T +5mins! Time to head home. Cya!

oi martin - i just signed into msn on the work computer and i have all theses conversations from you that i didnt receive lol!

i think my mac hates you cuz u dog it hahahah

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
