Re: For Matt

I'll give that a shot and take another datalog. This cold weather is keeping me in the house. Not to mention a broken pipe flooded my house and ruined my weekend plans to tune on the truck.

Re: For Matt

I'm using the relay board and have grounded to the body of the truck on the firewall which is also where I have the LC1 blue and white wires grounded.

About 18 inches over there is a bonding strap form the firewall to the engine block and the battery negative is grounded at the motor mount to the ...

Re: For Matt

haha, Sorry.

On the other thread I said I would post my tune and datalog of the ego issues I was having and the issue with the idle changing after I turned the truck off and then started back up again. I didn't want to hijack Portmod's thread so I mad another one.

For Matt

Playingtime_1-16-14.msq Matt,

Here are the files I told you I would post. My current tune has cleared up some issues I've had. Still have some more to go but it's running pretty good now. Look at the datalog closer to the end and you can see the oscillations when I turned on ego correction. It was ...

Somehting else my truck does is I can start it up and drive down to the store stopping at redlights and it idles around 900-1000rpm which is were I set the idle. Then when I stop and cut the engine off ...

EGO tune issue

Hey folks. I finally got my project up and running decent but I have a few bugs to work out yet. I'm using the autotune feature in tunerstudio to help with the tune and I have the EGO correction at 0% authority while tuning. After getting a decent tune I gave the EGO 20% percent authority and the ...

Some tuning questions

So I have my truck where I can drive it down the road now, but it's still having some issues. I am totally new to the tuning world so I guess my first question on this is which table do I start with first. Since I am working with fuel only right now do I need to put in any spark table parameters ...

Re: startup then redlines

Ok, I found the problem. A while back my truck had a small fire under the hood. It didn't burn everything but it did get hot. It must have warped my intake manifold a little because it was pulling air underneath the tbi adapter plate. One gasket was not enough to seal it up so I tried an extra one ...

Re: Registration problems

Vista, So I played with it more last night after my post. It seems as though it went through. What's the latest update I should see? I'll check it tonight when I get home. Phil do you have a shop in Charlotte? I'm right down the road in Chesterfield county in SC.

Registration problems

I purchased the registered version of TS a couple of days ago. I entered the information in the help tab just as described but it will not complete the registration. Funny thing is when I click on VE analyze live it doesn't give me the "for registered users only" or whatever. It actually seems to ...

Re: startup then redlines

Yes I tested it on the 5 pot stim and it worked as described. I did put it back on the stim after I had the start issues and the only thing I noticed is that the injector LEDs did not slow down when the TPS pot was all the way down like it did before I hooked everything up to the vehicle. I didn't ...

Re: startup then redlines

So I just downloaded MLV to take a look at the log myself. It looks like my settings didn't save when I was configuring my setup before start. I always wrote to the controller before I exited the tab and it said settings were burned. One think that did keep happening was TS would crash my computer ...

Re: startup then redlines

Ken, what program are you using to look at the code? I have C, and assembly language access through school. I'm an electrical engineer undergrads student.

Re: startup then redlines

Thanks for the help guys. I think I have the right files you wanted Matt. I agree with you guys that it doesn't seem right that it would run really high without getting the right mix of fuel and air together. I am an old school carb guy so I'm having to adjust to the computer controlling fuel input ...

Re: startup then redlines

Well that's what I was thinking, but also I set the parameters for everything as listed in the ms2 megamanual and also watched the video on DIY autotune website. I wouldn't think it could get enough fuel to rev that high but it does. I had to change the fuel cut to 2000 rpm just so it wouldn't run ...

startup then redlines

Hey guys,

I'm new to the MS community and I am having some trouble with my new build. After I got everything wired up and checked for leaks I tried to start the truck. After a couple of backfires and small fires in the throttle body it starts up but goes straight to redline. I currently have all ...
