Re: Datsun 2.8L Turbo on Sequencer

I now have just over 3 years on this setup with minimal issues-

1. A single blown fuse (under-sized)
2. Stalling when I hit a good sized bump.

The stalling was obviously a wiring issue, but I could not locate any loose
or damaged connections in my harness. My mistake was focusing on the
harness ...

Re: Microsquirt experts get in here. Canbus ?????

More info may be needed to answer your question, specifically the firmware version you are running.
If it is B&G code then the quick answer is that CAN broadcasting is not available and you have to have
a device poll the microsquirt. If you have the MX-Extra code loaded, you will have better luck ...

Re: WUE, boost and misfire

I think I may have solved this, and while WUE not the cause, it did help expose it.

After having the car painted I started having mid cruise misfires and idle stalls.
I suspected bondo dust had infiltrated the TPS and took a log to try to catch it,
and catch it I did. I has having random and ...

Re: WUE, boost and misfire

It is indeed a sequencer, and the I don't think the B&G code has
an option like 'Multiply Map'. I've auto-tuned up through 150KPA,
and have the MBC set to that point. I will review the regions
above 150KPA before I consider adjusting the MBC.

I am also into old school 2 strokes, and familiar with ...

WUE, boost and misfire

While my engine is warming up I try to stay out of boost, but occasionally it does
happen. I have been chasing what feels like a sever lean misfire, but it only occurs
during warm up, and the events I have captured in a log show that I don't appear
to be going lean.

My thought is a combo of a rich ...

Re: Can BT/TS drop cause an ecu reset?

I 're'-calibrated my coolant sensor and found that I must have buggered it
up the first time. Prior to the upgrade I was seeing about 70F in the
morning, with ambient being around 50F. After this calibration round
coolant and ambient in the morning are only a few degrees apart.

As a result cold ...

Re: Can BT/TS drop cause an ecu reset?

My coolant sensor does require a custom calibration. The values
looked close to what I expected, but a recalibrate may well help
the hot start issue.

Thanks for the critique on the tune. I understood the roles of ASE
and WUE, but I still managed to get it stuck in my head that the
temperature range ...

Re: Can BT/TS drop cause an ecu reset?

Today's tuning session went well. I managed about an hour
with not BT drops, using VEAL for a good bit of that. I had
a couple issues with hot restart, but I cannot say that is new
as my normal driving does not often involve a hot restart.

With the hot restart I noticed very lean conditions that ...

Re: Can BT/TS drop cause an ecu reset?

The update process was painless. The only error on merging the
MSQ and new ini was about the ipada array size not matching.
One item that concerned me at first is the ECU was cycling the
fuel pump while TS generated a difference report before allowing
me to push the config. I pulled that fuse as ...

Re: Can BT/TS drop cause an ecu reset?

Excellent.

I have not had to do an update yet, so to confirm-

I need the S19, ini and MS-II Download Utility V2.00
Launch the downloader and configure and connect the serial cable
Ground the purple bootloader wire
Power up the ECU
Select the new S19
Power off the ECU and disconnect the bootloader ...
