Minimum to run GMECM?

[Bruce Plecan]

Lets see, from the nature of this question, I'd almost quess that you have a
limited amount of efi experience.  So you with this limited background want
to jump in and redesign what gm has spent millions of dollars on, and
install it some other way.  OK..
   2nd, leaving all/most/some of the sensors disconnected negates any
benefits to running efi,  might as install a carb..  Least you might have
something that is proper to drive.
  The archives here and at GMECM have lots of leads on how to do things.

| For a basic DIS MAP application what are the minimum inputs
| that a GMECM is going to need to run?
| 1)Obviously power,ground, ignition
| 2)the connections to the DIS which I believe will supply RPM
| via the crank sensor, other misc power and ground connections.
| 3) MAP
| 4) Injector connections
| 5) TPS?  I assume the unit would at least idle without this hooked up?
| 6) temp?  same thing?
| 7) VSS ?  can this be fooled or bypassed since I have no sensor in this
| application
| 8) knock? I assmume not required just to make it idle
| 9) others required?
| Basically,  I am trying to figure out what is the minimum to crank and
| run angine with a 1227165, 748,749 or 730 and DIS.  Since I won't have a
| complete GM vehicle to tinker with, I will get as much as I can from some
donor vehicle.
| Thanks!
