[Diy_efi] Fixed Frequency Injection

You'll get slight problems if the injection frequency doesn't match the
valve opening frequency...
It might happen that you get two injection events on one cycle, and several
cycles later you only get one injectiong event.  You'd have to change the
injection duty cycle to take this into account, which means you'd have to
know the position of the engine (or valve timing).  Once you've got the
valve timing, you most as well go to some form of synchronised injection.

I don't think that you'd see major problems when using a generator, or in
most situations that I can think of.  It might increase the likelyhood of
pre-ignition (due to over lean AFR) or plug fouling (due to over rich AFR)
depending on how you set it up... But neither of these will be major.

Why do you wish to go to fuel injection on this?? Is it worth the effort
that is required to go into it?
