Scott,
I was asking around about FORD EEC IV system algorithims and how they work.
Such as what inputs are looked at, and what values of those inputs cause a
given output action, etc., etc. I want to know this information because I
have two vehicles, both use the EEC IV and SEFI, and I want to be able to
understand, troubleshoot and repair these vehicles myself. I started study-
ing this system due to a minor problem with one of the vehicles, and have
become more intrigued the further I get into it. It is absolutely facinating
how these components all work together to control all the different systems
on a modern auto, and to work in such harmony is great. Someone gave me
a copy of your email address,and said that you said that if there are any
questions about FORD, let you know as you were a FORD tech before going
independent. so I thought I'd inquire. Anyway, my question to you is do
you or can you get the the algorithims used in the EEC IV ECM, and if so,
could I get a copy. Again, this information will be used exclusively by
myself for study and Repair & Maintenance purposes. Any help you could
afford would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I have the Probst book on
FORD fuel injection and performance tuning. In there, he gives the basic
strategies for the different engine operating scenarios, but I want something
a little more in depth and on the software side of things. My main purpose
is to be able to possibly check a few sensor outputs and be able to figure
what a given output should be. Knowing this, I can then measure the outputs
and see if all is as it should be. If not, I'll know a little better where
to look for the problem. Also, if you have any information on what are
the most likely causes for each of the different fault codes, I'd appreciate
your input in that area too. I hope you can help me out here. I'll be
awaiting your reply. You can email me at either of the following email
addresses...... JPFA at msg.ti.com -or- j-paul2 at ti.com
Thanks for listening to my request.
Thanks and Regards,
Jim Paul
