ASE observations
Posted: Sat Feb 04, 2006 6:48 am
As temperatures are going down i noticed that it took two times to get the engine started. Sometimes it could just pick up from 300rpm and restore idle.
First thing i tried was increasing the ase from 30% to 40%. Didn't do anything. Next was a further increase to about 80%, same result. Took it back to 40% but increased the ae time from 5 sec to 20 sec. This solved the problem! Starts in one go and idles nicely at 1200rpm.
Seems it's more important to have a gentle slope instead of lots of fuel.
