Number of injections?

Hey guys - i just realized something on another website (e30tech.com) they were talking about injection # per cycle. I am runnin a 4 stroke 6 cyl with alternating staging, 2.5L 6 cylinder with 6 high impedence 42#/hr (440cc) injectors on 2 injections per engine cycle and I have noticed that it seems a little tricky to get the idle to stay in the stoich area. It could be that I am bouncing between two bins (moved the bins, now I am not bouncing...) or something. I set the bin to 39 VE at all four corners so tha there is no interpolation of VE in the idle bin hoping the car would find a AFR and just stay there, but that doesn't happen. I am wondering if my 2 injections per engine cycle is too short for the larger injectors. Should I switch to single injection per cycle? Will the car run any different on load? Will there ever not be enough fuel (since this is not sequential injection)?

If you´re pending around 2ms pulswidth at idle you should try the hi-res code :!: , my machine was doing a bit like yours but when i switched to hi-res 08 it disappeared.

Also.... setting the bins to the same value doesn´t mean that the afr:s are the same at slightly different kpa:s around idle, not for me anyways. I´ve carefully adjusted them so that when the engine runs a little "easier" and therefor goes down in kpa:s the ego correction doesn´t bear off on the wrong direction.

A bit tricky but when all is set it works lika a charm, it´s important that when the kpa:s go down in value that the bins are somewhat lower there so that the egocorrection doesn´t have to overcompensate to the leaning out direction, cause when it has to do that the engine will start to have a rough idle that tend to hunt a bit and the egocorrection swings wildly up and down.

I´ve HAD to finetweak this and some other areas by hand, none of the "auto mapping helpers" like autotune or the feature in megalogviewer has doned this right.

I believe I have a 2.0MS PW @ idle. This could be my issue with the hunting AFRs. What is this hi-res code you talk about? I run MSnS-E 029s. Woudl changing to 1 squirt fix my issue?

Check in to the msns-e 1 /development area on the forum and you´ll find the thread.

Last version is in the first post. But it´s not considered "finished" yet though.

It´s based mainly on the 029 code though so i should not worry to much. The only function taken out of the extra code to make room for the hi-res improvement is the PWM control for the injector current but since you´re running hi-z injectors that shouldn´t be a problem :?:

It´s just as stable as the 029q2 was for me before i changed.

Ok I will check it out - is there any new settings that I need to use to take advantage of the high res injection? Like, is it a feature that goes un noticed except in car performance or do I have to set it up or anything? Also, does it make that much of a difference?

It´s just "there" when you switch to that codeversion, it´s just like switching to any newer extra code so it´s nothing tricky.

I even loaded in my old 029q2 msq file, it did protest about errors in audit log but after i saved it and reloaded it again nothing went wrong. Although you should experience som need for remapping, since the calculation of the pw is more precise. Read the thread i was talking about earlier and you will understand that part...

The only difference you´ll notice when opening MT is that the numbers on the PW meter has more decimals....

Ok - and one more question, I "believe" my PW is = 2.0 or < 2.0 at idle. I have not log to look at right now but I do recall seeing that in MT. Would that cause instability of my idle afr? I forget what the acceptable minimum PW is.

Additionally, would using the Hi Res code still function with the latest megalog viewer and its VE Analyze function?
