The V8 Owners Forum -

hehehehe
i'll point jago towards this post, as he has worked with ms, and also my vems, so he could possibly be your eyes and ears this end?
failing that a trip to southampton,

Extra brains do tend to help these sort of problems, so yes that could help.

The other option is that I make a trip up the country with my box of VEMS spares, although the ferry is silly money for cars - about as much as the fuel I'd use The ferry isn't too bad for foot passengering.

picking you up and running back should not be a problem mate,
waiting to hear back from jago about reflashing the ecu again to see if that works,
otherwise you get any more information from the datalogs? as in still rich etc????

new 42lb/hr bosch injectors ordered dnb, that should sort the duty cycle problem out,
how do we stop them from overfuelling? is it within the ecu settings?

hoping this weekend (sunday now0 to fit the new injectors and fit the diode to the ecu.

Dave,
out of curiosity can you check this and see if the ego correction is working,
this log was taken june time last year,
if not then its never worked from day one looking at it,

www.v-8.org.uk/Zipfiles/latestlogs.zip

Looks like it's never worked - Gego never moves from 100 in the logs.

bugger
well thats a poop, the ecu aint worked 100% from day 1 then
sounds like i may be posting a mail to Rob over at the vems forum....

It could still be a strange config problem, although I can't see what it can be.

It's very odd that everything else seems to work properly - why should it get readings from the sensor and refuse to correct the fuel? I'll put together a config that uses the wideband stuff from my TVR that you can upload to see if it makes a difference.

cheers mate,
do you need my .msq? or have you still got the one you modded?

I still have the modded msq, so I'll be OK there.

Dave,
have you changed the lambda table to aswell?
as when i did the o/e one im not sure i had it correct, if you have not changed it could you take a look to if possible please,


as the car has no rear tyres at mo due to the misshap over the weekend,
i decided to pull my finger out and start on the injector swap.

Trial fit, to check fittment.


New Bosch 440cc's 42lb/hr Motorsport Injectors and fuel rail fitted,


Trumpet base and plenum top reffitted,


A few minor things left to connect up, but it got too cold round the garage this evening (-2 on the car thermometer)

right found the thread,

'dnb' what would you be looking for while looking at the ecu/ set-up??

and do you want me to reflash the ecu to make sure everything is in there ok?

failing that i'll just have a poke about and see if i can find a fault on the settings and/or the hardware.

It wouldn't hurt to reflash the firmware. This won't solve a config error though.

Simply burning a new config in with Megatune won't either. One of us will need to extract the config via the terminal and manually check it for errors.

I'd be looking for "odd things". It's a bit difficult to describe really - basically anything that's hugely different to my TVR config.

if we download the config and then send to you dave would that be ok?
