Dead Injector Bank
Posted: Sat Jun 21, 2008 1:56 pm
I have an odd problem. I am running a Megasquirt II v3 with a relay board running 8.86 code. Bank 1 of my injectors gets no gas. I can get the car to start on 4 cylinders using bank 2. The car is a 472 Cadillac V8 with a 1975 Cadillac port injection manifold. It has low impedance F2 (factory) injectors. I am using an HEI with vacuum advance. The Megasquirt only controls the FI. I recently built the Megasquirt but bought a preassembled relay board. I can not figure out what could cause 1 bank of injectors not to fire. I initially had an alternating injector sequence. Then I tried simulaneous, no change. I noticed the R15 0n my Megasquirt board looked burned. It was the only component burned. I replaced it with another 22 ohm resistor. The original burned resistor measured 23 ohms. So I don't suspect that this resistor was causing a problem. The spark plugs on Bank 1 are still clean. The bank 2 plugs are wet .Has anyone had this issue or does this ring any bells as to what would cause 1 bank to not work ? BTW, the fuses are all good. Thanks. Dan
