Having a spot of trouble getting my head round the AFM thing. RB20DET PFC like all has 5 AFM options. Yet when you check next to the appropriate one nothing changes?

What does the figure next to the AFM volt setting indicate?

Gee that will help...

Will have a look at mine at lunch, you have it set to VG30 80mm I take it

Hi TT, my understanding is that those numbers refer to the 5th Option in which you plug in your own polynomial:cheers:

Hi TT, it's my understanding that it's for Option #5 so you can set up your own polynomial:cheers:

As far as I can see, the voltage reading with 100% along side refers to the fuel map... So if I want to lean off when the AFM output is ie; 1.28v then I ramp that number 100 down.... so effectively the A/F will be say 95% leaner at that point. The 13b looks like it uses PIM rather than AFM, but the end result is the same.

The actual air flow curves are different... Datalogit people may only know what I am talking about. And yes Skid, If I wanted to run a MkIII pulminator for AFM then I could form my own curve...

Not thick down 'ere, but slow sometimes. :idea:

Funny, yesterday I was playing around with my PFC to see what your on about TT :D

I must have left it set to option 5 in the AFM setting, as the car wouldn't idle at all, then I realised I must have not set it back! :D

But I think SK and TT are spot on, its there to setup your own curve

Also, just a quick PFC Q while I have most of the other RB20 PFC owners here, the knock sensor function - is it possible to set the 'check engine' light to come on earlier or later? I wasn't sure if this was adjsutable, and cannot find a option to change it

Cheers, Chris

Hi Chris, knock sensor is adjustable, there is a threshold (0 to 100) and a setting (0 to 9 , I think as I have never adjusted it). Usual threshold is 60, and flash is set to 9. This flash interval is so you can tell what sensor the Engine Warning light is flashing for. They are located in the Settings menu but it has been a while since I used the Commander to do it, the Datalogit is so much easier.

Hope that helps:cheers:

Ok I will have a look, cheers!

any chance you can have a look at this question I posted, your input would be a huge help - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=54225

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
