I was also partially wrong... or partially right which ever you think of it... heres from a buddy that works at GM...
 
you can check a wheel sensor two ways, one is with a scanner(the best
way), the other is have the vehicle raised, take a DVOM and and
connect to the connectors(only has two connectors), spin the wheel,
it will generate a signal in ohms(dosen't check for glitches, so not
a perfect check)....VSS sensor, the only way I know is drive it with
a scanned connected

If these are the type that mount in the speedometer hole on the tailshaft of the transmission and have a gear like a speedometer cable on the shaft, just connect them to a pointer type meter set to measure 10-20volts DC. Spin the gear by hand and the meter should whip back and forth positive and negative. This type is a permanent magnet generator producing about 10-12volts peak to peak. _______________________________________________ diy_efi mailing list diy_efi at diy-efi.org http://lists.diy-efi.org/mailman/listinfo/diy_efi From c.kahler at verizon.net Fri Oct 8 16:44:33 2004 From: c.kahler at verizon.net (ck) Date: Fri, 08 Oct 2004 12:44:33 -0400 Subject: [Diy_efi] 1227747 ecm question Message-ID: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --===============51148991741770589== Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_00CF_01C4AD1B.2CE58CA0" This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_00CF_01C4AD1B.2CE58CA0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I'm getting ready to burn a prom for my 747 ECM.

I think those are the hall effect sensors.

The parts I've collected so far are: 1. TBI unit from a 4.3 2. '747 computer from a 4.3 4. adapter plate to adapt TBI unit to Holey 4 barrel manifold 5. Holley Street Dominator manifold for Buick V6 (you could also use the Edelbrock Performer manifold but I chose the Holley because it sit a little lower and supports an EGR valve) 5. wiring harness for TBI (you can adapt one from an Astro van or S10/S15 truck or buy one from one of the aftermarket vendors. I chose to buy one from Painless Wiring) 6. sensors for the TBI system that aren't attached to the TBI unit (the list here depends on how complete a system you're installing but includes knock sensor, o2 sensor, vss, coolant sensor) I will be installing this on a fresh 4.1 liter that's going in my 1946 Willys CJ-2A with a 4 speed and 4.27 gears. I plan to try using one of the 4.3 liter, manual transmission ROM images as is, first. If that doesn't perform well, I'll tweak it from there. If you get any more info you can share, please do.

It APPEARS that the "filter" is your typical fine nylon mesh that basically separates the tank in to two separate areas. My guess is that one area is fed by a supply pump (low pressure) and also by the bypass/return from the pressure regulator. There is also what I assume to be a tank return line on top of the filter body connected to this area. The other area has what I assume to be an outlet, which is larger than the other 3 inlet/return lines. My question: is this in fact how this thing is hooked up? Does anyone have a fuel line routing diagram for this little jewel? Although it's pretty small, I think this will probably satisfy my needs for a surge tank while autoXing my Valiant. If not, at least all my lines will be run and I can just reconfigure to add volume. The extra filter feature is just gravy, since I'll have 2 in the system already. Thoughts?

Nicoson) Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2004 23:12:27 -0300 Subject: [Diy_efi] PW Controlled Sequential Water Injection - It RUNS! Message-ID: It ran. I'm happy and celebrating with a bowl of vanilla ice cream & Oreo cookies and a Mt Dew. I ran it tonight for about 15 minutes, only a few leaks to fix and a pressure gauge to wire up Saturday AM. Hopefully dyno time over the weekend. I can't claim any blazing performance improvement based on tonight's run. I still have to load the appropriate tune into the EEC to take advantage of the system. The EEC Tuner list was helping me with that tune today. What is it? 8 separate 14# injectors with their own "water feed rail", water pressure regulator referenced to intake vacuum (actually a 1994 Mustang 5.0 fuel regulator), a 6 gallon supply tank in the trunk with a Sureflo diaphragm pump. Water flows up to the feed rail through your basic 300 psi air compressor hose and the return flow through the same. I built an analog controller that is triggered by the respective fuel injector pulse width, the water injector is delayed a set amount of time and then fires for the remainder of the pulse width. This delay is adjustable giving me the ability to change the percentage of water injected. I have 30# fuel injectors. I also use the EEC Tuner which gives me full control over my fuel tables and spark tables. The injector drivers are proper P & H if I ever need to run lo impedance injectors. Right now just running Crown Vic 14# high impedance injectors. What's it supposed to do on a NA 1994 5.0 Mustang? Two things, provide detonation resistance at WOT (two T-3 turbos waiting for an install...) and POSSIBLY improve highway cruise mpg. Theory: WOT operation you guys all know.

Highway cruise. Based on some WWII research reports - they were running up to 50 parts water to 100 parts fuel at high load, achieving great power gains AND achieving about 10% improvement in efficiency. My thoughts were that 50% water at low LOADs probably would be too much but if I built the controller with some adjustability I could EXPERIMENT and see if a lesser amount of water would help at highway cruise.

I think we started discussing pulse width controlled sequential water injection back in July 2003. I've been working on it ever since. I had to learn all about the electronics and spent most of this 15 months getting all that working right. My wife jokes that I could open a Radio Shack store with everything it took to finalize the circuit (most of it came from Mouser and Digi Key). The fabrication to mount the extra injectors under my Trick Flow manifold took over a month. The feed rail is welded stainless steel (Dustin where I work is a wizard welder!). The wiring harness in the car was a LOT of work. This is an EXPERIMENT! Eventually I will write all this up, post some circuit diagrams etc. Right now I have about 30 days before the snow shuts me down, I want to get some data during that time. I am also concerned how long the injectors will last. I ran straight water tonight. After the leaks are all resolved, I plan to run 80% water & 20% methanol that has 1 oz of Klotz - Uplon fuel lube per gallon of methanol. The Klotz is supposed to provide upper cylinder lube for alcohol fueled vehicles AND provide rust protection for the fuel system. My only corrosion concerns are the injectors, pressure regulator and pressure sensor. Everything else is stainless, rubber or plastic (boat fuel tank). Its an EXPERIMENT, I'm having fun! Worst part is I'll be traveling for work the next two days and won't get back to the project until Saturday AM. Fire away!

It's not nearly a liter, more like 1/8L or so. The beauty of it is that it IS small, and that makes for better packaging under my car. It may be a Plymouth, but between the sway bar and 3" tail pipes going over the axle, and the very lowered suspension, there isn't much room to put a separate surge tank of much size under the car. I thought of putting it up front, but I'm on a mission to keep as much weight off the nose as possible. I wish I could find a better picture of the part, but the link in the past thread seems to be dead. I'll see if I can post some pix to my web site for a better view.

Message-ID: I am not an engineer, so i might be talking crap here, but according to what i have been reading around, it should be possible to run pretty lean A/F with just an half decent engine management, and without the complication of water injection. aircrafts engines are routinely run at lean of peak for hours without any problem whatsoever, as long as top power is not required. knocking at cruise can be easily avoided with a proper ignition map, and i doubt it is necessary to inject a fuel substitute to achieve MPG improvement. from the gasoline FAQ. i think the magic word there is "calibrate". i suppose that just squirting some water in the engine is easy, to achieve any advantage is a completely different story. 7.13 What does water injection achieve?. Water injection, as a separate liquid or emulsion with gasoline, or as a vapour, has been thoroughly researched. If engines can calibrated to operate with small amounts of water, knock can be suppressed, hydrocarbon emissions will slightly increase, NOx emissions will decrease, CO does not change significantly, and fuel and energy consumption are increased [113- Water Addition to Gasoline - Effect on Combustion, Emissions, Performance, and Knock. J.A.Harrington.SAE Technical Paper 820314 (1982).]. Water injection was used in WWII aviation engine to provide a large increase in available power for very short periods. The injection of water does decrease the dew point of the exhaust gases. This has potential corrosion problems. The very high specific heat and heat of vaporisation of water means that the combustion temperature will decrease. It has been shown that a 10% water addition to methanol reduces the power and efficiency by about 3%, and doubles the unburnt fuel emissions, but does reduce NOx by 25% [114]. A decrease in combustion temperature will reduce the theoretical maximum possible efficiency of an otto cycle engine that is operating correctly, but may improve efficiency in engines that are experiencing abnormal combustion on existing fuels. Some aviation SI engines still use boost fluids. The water-methanol mixtures are used to provide increased power for short periods, up to 40% more - assuming adequate mechanical strength of the engine. The 40/60 or 45/55 water-methanol mixtures are used as boost fluids for aviation engines because water would freeze. Methanol is just "preburnt" methane, consequently it only has about half the energy content of gasoline, but it does have a higher heat of vaporisation, which has a significant cooling effect on the charge. Water-methanol blends are more cost-effective than gasoline for combustion cooling. The high Sensitivity of alcohol fuels has to be considered in the engine design and settings. Boost fluids are used because they are far more economical than using the fuel. When a supercharged engine has to be operated at high boost, the mixture has to be enriched to keep the engine operating without knock. The extra fuel cools the cylinder walls and the charge, thus delaying the onset of knock which would otherwise occur at the associated higher temperatures. The overall effect of boost fluid injection is to permit a considerable increase in knock-free engine power for the same combustion chamber temperature. The power increase is obtained from the higher allowable boost. In practice, the fuel mixture is usually weakened when using boost fluid injection, and the ratio of the two fuel fluids is approximately 100 parts of avgas to 25 parts of boost fluid. With that ratio, the resulting performance corresponds to an effective uprating of the fuel of about 25%, irrespective of its original value. Trying to increase power boosting above 40% is difficult, as the engine can drown because of excessive liquid [110]. Note that for water injection to provide useful power gains, the engine management and fuel systems must be able to monitor the knock and adjust both stoichiometry and ignition to obtain significant benefits. Aviation engines are designed to accommodate water injection, most automobile engines are not. Returns on investment are usually harder to achieve on engines that do not normal extend their performance envelope into those regions. Water injection has been used by some engine manufacturers - usually as an expedient way to maintain acceptable power after regulatory emissions baggage was added to the engine, but usually the manufacturer quickly produces a modified engine that does not require water injection. -----Original Message----- From: diy_efi-bounces at diy-efi.org [mailto:diy_efi-bounces at diy-efi.org]On Behalf Of David Cooley Sent: Donnerstag, 21.

On the high-horsepower radials on fighter aircraft near the end of WW II, it was documented that waster injection could give benefits along the lines of those mentioned without forced-induction; generally they ran higher compression ratios than they otherwise could have without water injection. I believe the one problem run into was that the engine components ran into corrosion problems, and service intervals for component replacement were greatly shortened; this was considered worthwhile at the time, as winning a dogfight was much more important than having to replace pistons and rings once back on the ground. ;) I wish I could remember the articles I'd read, as I can't recollect all the details at this time. > dont forget that injecting water you are detracting > useful volume of oxygen and fuel to the inlet > charge. Well, if you can up the CR, that's a big help, and charge density will probably increase a bit overall due to the cooling effect of the water's low heat of vaporization (yes, it expands and displaces more volume, but I think there is advantage up to a certain point of water volume by percentage). ===== | 82 Honda CX500 Turbo (Cassandra) 90 Kwak Zephyr 550 (Daphne) | | "It was like an emergency ward after a great catastrophe; it | | didn't matter what race or class the victims belonged to. | | They were all given the same miracle drug, which was coffee. | | The catastrophe in this case, of course, was that the sun | | had come up again." -Kurt Vonnegut | | Buy my M/C Fuel Inj.

It will _NOT_ improve power. That 2000HP must be either: - intercooler injection setup, but 2x mpg is just about impossible - typo - urban legend another (useful) application of fuel injection, not told about before, is: imagine an engine with extreme turbocharge (it can be supercharge, whatever) when compressing the intake air, it will heat up (significantly!) this will reduce the amount of O2 that gets into the combustion chamber, and also might cause overheat so it should be cooled down. That's what intercooler does, we all know but under extreme pressures and air flows, that intercooler won't be enough the idea is to spray water into the intake air. It will self-vaporise and cool down the intake air a bit, allowing more O2 per cubic inch/cm to get into the chambers and also fine cooling the engine, since its vaporization will take heat energy. Water has (relatively) high I-dont-know-what-is-it-called-in-english (some kind of energy... the amount needed to turn 1kg liquid water into gas), is quite cheap, so it's fine with this setup, you just install the water injector onto the intercooler. Not sure if intake or out side, but it's intercooler mounted, so it will still have some time to vaporize but this will not help your mileage and with an engine like this, you will not get anywhere near 2x mpg :) but 2000HP is possible from that chevelle engine, I think on the other hand, I know some ppl who were experimenting with this kind of water injection, but they could not achieve good results (though tried really hard, haha :) and such setup is just fine for one race (not races), but not for daily cruising at all... oh and another thought: if you think you can burn water in the engine, gaining energy, well, that's false. At first, it will _USE_ some energy to vaporize: 2*H2O + {E} => 2*H2 + O2 then you have extra O2, which, however, will be used to burn that H2 into water again. This gives back the {E} you've used, but since you've already used it, and there are losses, in fact you only loose energy H2O won't directly burn into anything and as far as I remember, 2*H2 + O2 will burn to water, nothing else... so, injecting water might (and in fact does) have gooood side effects, but will not give extra power :) one question left is that whether you can use the O2 from that 2*H2 + O2 to burn the fuel, and not the H2 but this would leave you with a lean-out combustion again, I think hm... pushing it even further: It would be nice to have a method to turn H2O into H2+O2 without energy, but currently it is not possible :) It would be even safe! Much more safe than carrying H2 in your tank (no doubt this is the way automotive industry is heading)... There is a strange device that is told to turn H2O into H2 and O2, but: 1) it's not proven that it works 2) it's not proven how it works 3) seeing the experiments, it produces H2 really slowly, so it's not really for in-car use... so guys, I suggest we keep on injecting that gasoline it's even cheap in the states (beleive me, it is) and let the big brothers play with that water :) and improve HP with charging, MPG with using Honda engines :D you will always have to choose between performance and economy, like you've had to since the big bang... tom ps. and about the fuel container... If you're off-roading, go for a bigger tank. No VW parts, and no 1/8 L container, won't help much in big trouble :) 1L tank sounds fine, but I doubt that's why VW used it, if used at all... but still, I might be able to get you the fuel lining diagram for it, if you give me the part number (darn) but here's a link you can also use: www.elcats.ru it's russian, but who knows... has all the audi parts catalogue pictures... _______________________________________________ diy_efi mailing list diy_efi at diy-efi.org http://lists.diy-efi.org/mailman/listinfo/diy_efi From espresso_doppio at yahoo.com Thu Oct 21 18:56:07 2004 From: espresso_doppio at yahoo.com (Adam Wade) Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 15:56:07 -0300 Subject: [Diy_efi] PW Controlled Sequential Water Injection - It RUNS!

That's the issue there. In fact, I have a number of wonderful articles about running LoP, which is something that many pilots are taught will blow up their engines. John Deakin is a wise man. :) > knocking at cruise can be easily avoided with a > proper ignition map, and i doubt it is necessary to > inject a fuel substitute to achieve MPG improvement. EGR was done mainly for emissions reasons; cruise economy was just an added benefit. If you can control your coolant temperature very tightly, then you can run right to the edge of detonation with very careful fuel and spark maps. If you can't, then you will need some help, or you will have to run conservative spark/fueling tables to keep you out of the "danger" zone. Water injection is a great way to accomplish a lot of things with minimum difficulty; that's why turbos use it so often. It can actually widen the "workable" range of fueling and spark timing a fairly large amount when done right. And please amend my last post to read "very HIGH heat of vaporization" of water, which I am sure many of you will point out to me I wrote incorrectly. :) ===== | 82 Honda CX500 Turbo (Cassandra) 90 Kwak Zephyr 550 (Daphne) | | "It was like an emergency ward after a great catastrophe; it | | didn't matter what race or class the victims belonged to. | | They were all given the same miracle drug, which was coffee. | | The catastrophe in this case, of course, was that the sun | | had come up again." -Kurt Vonnegut | | Buy my M/C Fuel Inj.

Right. That's the issue there. In fact, I have a number of wonderful articles about running LoP, which is something that many pilots are taught will blow up their engines.

And good luck finding a TR setup without giving up your firstborn. There is a MUCH BETTER alternative. What you should be looking for is an 80's "A-body"; that is, a FWD compact car like Cutlass Ciera, Buick Century, Pontiac 6000, Celebrity. THESE CARS ARE ALL OVER THE JUNKYARDS!!! Starting in 84, these came with MPFI 3.8s, and they went to SFI in 1986. The heads and intake will definitely bolt onto any old 3.8, if not just the intake. 88 and up 3.8s are completely different and nothing interchanges with the older style, this is the "3800" that everyone knows and loves.

         I am in the process= of retrofitting a 1988 vintage 318 with
Throttle Body Injection into a Bombardier Tracked
vehicle called a " Muskeg ". We have been using this vehicle to log = with
and up till now had been using a Holley 2bbl
for carburetion. The big problem is that the vehicle sometimes has t= o work
at an attitude close to 45 deg and when this
happens, the float sticks and the vehicle stalls.
 
           &n= bsp;With all of the recent discussion on Mopars, and with the ECU
internals I was hoping that you folks might
be able to point me to where I can find  info on the SCI i= nterface /
protocol etc that would let one retrieve codes etc from the
diagnostic port.
           &n= bsp; I am aware that I can using the ' flashing light ' method and
I have saved this part of the wiring harness to use
for that purpose. But having a hobby in MicroControllers and such, I= would
like to cook up a device to read the codes
if I can.  Up till joining this group, I have not been abl= e to find much in
the way of info on the pre-OBD controllers.
 
Any pointers are greatly appreciated.
 
Sincerely, Wally

This one is probably of the M2.1 or M1.7 generation, based on the intel mcs96 controller, with knock sensors. I don't know how it's with 4cyl engines, but flat6 engines run very high compression ratio (above 11:1), so of course everything must be modified to use a charger. Bosch ECU are not really simple to program, there is not a lot of informations. In any case the stock ECU would not be able to control the pierburg valve for boost control, so an aftermarket ECU seems mandatory. Except if you completely re-program the box. Sell the original box and buy a race one, they are not so expensive now. May be it would be less expensive to sell your engine and buy a turbo one.

Here's what I have so far: "As I surmised in an earlier post, the CX500T unit had a 8xxx MPU of some sort as the box used the 8253 PIT, which is used with the 8xxx family. Futher investigation of the pinouts leads me to believe the MCU is in the 8035/39/40 sub-family. Nipondenso is large enought to fab their own chips, but I think they only "branded" the available chip with their number...ND079753-0021. I tried to read on-board ROM as an 8048/49, but got nothing in the read buffer. The 8035 units are CPU only with no memory on-board. All these chips use the same pinout. The companion chip is a 8755. The 2716 eeprom is standard." I have hex dumps of both the 2716 and the 8755. I am trying to sort out which maps are where, and to disassemble the machine code, as there is an overboost fuel cut-off I wish to eliminate. If I can't get it sorted to where I can burn my own chip, I may just build a Megasquirt. But since I can socket the EPROM, it makes more sense to me to just do tabletop work and save my money and testing effort. :) I have access to a step-testing eddy current dyno, as well as an attached four-gas analyzer and an emulator, so once I get the code and the maps sussed, tuning and burning a replacement chip will be simple and easy. Old-tech wizards, I'm looking forward to hearing from you. :) ===== | 82 Honda CX500 Turbo (Cassandra) 90 Kwak Zephyr 550 (Daphne) | | "It was like an emergency ward after a great catastrophe; it | | didn't matter what race or class the victims belonged to. | | They were all given the same miracle drug, which was coffee. | | The catastrophe in this case, of course, was that the sun | | had come up again." -Kurt Vonnegut | | Buy my M/C Fuel Inj.

I've already botched one length of fuel rail extrusion and I want to try a different route. MSD sells these "fuel delivery top mounts" for flex-line installations. I have a few questions: 1. Is there a place that sells these things with two holes instead of one, so as to avoid having to use a junction block? 2. Does 1/8" NPT convert to some AN size? Or am I stuck with NPT? 3. Is it an option to just remove the o-ring from the tops of the injectors and clamp a hose on to the end, which then would be clamped to a hose barb that's attached to a bunch of Ts? 4. Is there a source for cheaper, small lengths of fuel hose with fittings on the end? I'm concerned that my injectors may not be perfectly lined up as I was not capable of perfectly lining up things when I was using the old drill press on the intake. So, I'm worried that if I try solid fuel rail again, the o-rings will not seat in the bores straight and that they will leak. Is this a valid concern?

Basically - forget trying to make a fuel rail. You have to ream or broach to get a round enough hole - a drill does not produce a perfectly round hole. Plus there is the alignment problem you were discussing. I think they said MSD sells bungs that are accurate enough to seal up. I would be very careful - barbs could let go the hose and you would be spraying gasoline on a hot engine. Good luck On Fri, 29 Oct 2004 19:25:01 -0400, Chris Carson wrote: > Hi y'all, > I have a set of 8 standard GM fuel injectors that I'm trying to build a fuel > rail for.

They did this for my Kawasaki which has a tubular fuel rail and hose mounted injectors like this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7930094713&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT If you need a clearer pic let me know.

Hello

I'm new member to DIY-EFI .. I'm engineer I have designed an engine simulator for testing engine

 ECU's the simulator generate all the sensors signals required operate the ECU under test

  I'm using LABview software to monitor and control the ECU operation

 By now most of the BOSCH MOTRONIC ECU?s can be tested...I'm now preparing the simulator

For testing SIMTEC and GM ecru?s but the information on SIMTEC and GM ECU is very rare... any one can help with

the pinout or schematics of SIMTEC and GM ECU's
