HELP Worf 3D to Standard Computer

[Adam 33]

Hey guys and girls

At the moment i need to take out my Wolf 3D and place the standard computer back in and get it running.

I have the standard one in now and it will fire up for half a sec and then stalls straight away. If i give it a bit of revs to keep it running, it feels as if the timing is out.

Two things were changed under the bonnet (that i have noticed). Could any of these have anything to do with not running?

1. line going to the computer for boost controller (Its now blocked)

2. hose cut at the boost solenoid

Please help as i have to have it running by tomorrow morning with the standard Computer in.

I will have pictures in about an hour up

Thanks

I had a similar problem the first time i fired mine up after the engine swap. Turned out to be the fuel pump speed control wasn't plugged into the dropping resistor and so when the ecu wanted to drop the fuel pump speed at idle it would stall.

An easy solution to the problem if you cant find the resistor is to chop the wire at the ecu for the fuel pump speed control and it will have the fuel pump work at the normal speed all the time.

Have you still got your afm in there? though it should still start without it.

Do you know which wire is for the fuel pump? where should the resister be located? The AFM was used with the wolf 3d so it shouldnt be that.

this one has the blue tube that was added and the boost solenoid tube cut

this one had a T piece put in then goes to the wolf but its blocked at the other end

Thanks for your help, shouldnt be to long before i can get it going now

I noticed when they put the wolf in my car that my tuner turned the CAS (round thingy in front of the exhaust cam) fully anti-clockwise and tuned it from there. So check your CAS too since that determines the base timing for the standard ECU.

The CAS hasnt been moved since i got the car, but i will have another check tomorrow morning.

The reason im changing it back, is I have to travel over to Adelaide and im pretty sure i cant get BP98 all the way over.

Is there a way of changing something on the wolf so that i can travel with normal premium?

You could retard the timing a bit for the trip but it isn't the best thing to do, especially for a long trip. You're right, you won't get 98 accross the Nullabor. You could carry jerrys but it is still a long way.

Your last stop for BP fuel is at Norseman. Give them a call and find out whether they carry it. Then you won't get it again until maybe Port Augusta. Which still means that there is I think almost 2000klm's between stops. What type of fuel economy do you get?

You could carry some good quality octaine booster with you as well. Just stay off the hard boost. How bad doed your car ping with normal stuff?

yip, im going to carry jerrys for this trip just to be on the safe side, that way i can leave the Wolf in and ill just baby the car all the way.

thanks for your help

98 is available all the way across now that Caltex sells it as well

Does Caltex sell 98 or just premium?

[Adam 33]

Made it safe and sound.

there was two places where i couldnt fill up with 98, i cant remember the name of the towns, so the jerry cans came in handy, I think it was just premium that Caltex sold but i could be wrong.

or you could keep it off boost while driving across and not worry about it.

Am I missing something here?????

The whole idea of a aftermarket ECU is being able to load custom maps to suit what you're doing with your car!!

Get it tuned for std unleaded and you'll not only travel safely, you'll be able to get an "economy tune" if the tuner knows what he's doing.

As TJ says, it'll be at a lower boost with some timing taken out. You should also be able to lean out the off boost/low boost load points and save some fuel as well! Just make sure that you well and truely flush the std fuel before reloading the "nasty" maps.
