MSefi.com read only forum (Jan.15,2018)

I got a Stim to start working on... Tried putting some resistors in and, well I am going to need a big light and a magnifying glass!!! and some type of no slip surface!!!

Yeah,
I image I will lose them in the build of the ecm and the wiring. However there are a few that I think will be extremely helpful when it comes to tuning aspect.

Did it give you a error message? sometime searching Google with the message will help.
I am not a 7 expert, but I know in XP if you have a java issue you are in for a big headache.
The best I can offer would be to uninstall all then re install the most current.
Or sometime you can create a new user ...

Is there a build tread forum?
I was going to just post to my truck club forum. However I think I will get limited response or support.

Thanks Ken,

I figure this will get me into trouble but not to much at one time. I am eager to get get my hands dirty, and I figure this way let me learn as I go and give my wallet time to recover.

Well,
I am playing around with the idea of doing this backwards...
Since I have the 8 pin distributor and have not bought the intake, fuel rail & fuel system(pump & lines).
What would be wrong with hooking up the ms-II to control the timing? Get everything wired and ready for the injection system ...

Thanks Ken,
The sad part is I probably read that somewhere, just gonna take a while for my brain to sort though all that stuff running through it. I spent some slow time at work today and re-read AE then looked at dave's post things started to make sense. Then I watched Matt's video he made for the ...

Stupid question, Just trying to understand the hierarchic. Is the AFR table more for closed loop corrections and the AE table is the basis for the fuel management?
If it is not an easy answer then just tell me which section of the book or megamanual I should "re-read"

That is cool, and that was lingering in the back of my mind is the longevity of an ecm that "I" built. But to me this is about learning engine management and not just being a wench turner. I have had my truck for a long time... Right now it is flat black and I am just playing. I plan on rebuilding ...

Wow, thanks for the advice. My gut was telling me it can work just had a lot of people saying otherwise. I really appreciate it and gives me a piece of mind. I am reading however I am not the type of person that retains very well unless I get my hands on something.

Here is my cam. It is a Howard's ...

Thanks Dave,
That does help, I understand.
With all that being said I have allot of reading and advice telling me to change the cam, but at the same time I am wondering if I am up to the challenge of getting this thing to idle.
From what I am reading I am sure it is not this easy as I am making it ...

So there is no magical vacuum # that the FPR is set to reduce the fuel pressure at?
If a stock small block pull 17 to 18 inches at idle and mine is pulling 10 to 11 inches, the bottom line is I will have "less" of a drop in pressure? Or less of a range in fuel pressure variation due to the limited ...

Thanks for the reply's
I am trying to establish how this will affect me with the cam I have and if it is worth replacing my cam.
I was told by one friend that some FPR's require 14" of vacuum. If that is the case and my cam is only allowing my motor to pull 10 or 11 inches. That is going to affect ...

Reading about FPR-ers. I can't find much info on the Holley FPR that comes with the fuel rail for the Stealth ram.
I If I am setting it to the correct static pressure, key on engine off. When the engine is started will the vacuum increase or decrease the pressure?

I have for some time wanted to install TPI on my 69 C-10 Pick-up. Well that plan has changed slightly over time and now I am getting to the point where I am really looking forward to learning efi and the tuning/configuration along with it. The original plan was to use a stock tpi intake with a ...
