Hi Everyone,

i'm trying to figure out how to calculate the optimal cranking time for my 850cc injectors. Since i've changed them i haven't adjusted the settings in my powerfc for the cranking time...which makes its not a quick start on cold start.

any help is appreciated.

cheers

Start the tune from scratch I say. Injector lag times and voltage curves are usually completely different meaning most of the fuel map is probably out. You can't just change the injector size on the hand controller and away you go. You really need to set the injectors first imo, then tune.

Are you on ethanol?

All else fails, aerostart. :P

i haven't checked the new plugs yet to see if they are getting a clean burn....it does burble away after its been idling for a while....starts out ok though. i occasionaly run Gull force 10 which is 10 % ethanol 98 octane fuel.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
