V3 flyback problem?, current limit must be at 70% or above
Posted: Sat Mar 04, 2006 10:16 pm
I wasn't really sure where to post, but first I need to figure out if my settings are wrong for sure so I'll post here.
I'm running: MS-I v3.0, MT v2.25b717, Extra024s13c
I added all the flyback components as I'm using Bosch 35 lb/hr low impedance injectors, stock for a Ford 2.3T in later years. I just measured the resistance to get a rough idea of impedance and measured appx. 1.5 ohms, very low.
I realized thanks to Wes K. that I should be able to run something around 30% current limit with the flyback circuits, I was unknowingly running 80%. However when trying to cut the limit down, 50% made the car die when giving any throttle and 60% was very lean and I could never get enough fuel under boost. I went back to 70% and things are fine but I guess this means something may be wrong. Opening time: 1.0 ms, PWM Time Threshold: 1.3 ms, Voltage Correction: .20 ms/V, Required fuel with 37 lb/hr injectors (35 pounders at 45 psi base pressure): 10.0/5.0
I've searched through everything imaginable, MM, old posts, and can't figure it out. Could I have already toasted something with that initial high setting? It runs just fine, I haven't checked the injectors after running them for a while though, to see if they are getting hot. Not sure what other info might be needed, let me know.
Thank you,
John Lewis
