Stalling Mirotec...

[blx]

I drove a skyline today that had 220 RWKW and microtec L12 ( i think). But when it was cold it would constantly stall if you did not rev it. I was told it was because the aftermarket plenum was a lot bigger.

Can the automatic choke be altered within the microtec to solve this problem? Or is there another way to fix this problem?

Thanks

id say either it was the idle circuit wasnt connected or the bov was leaking

[KamikazeR33]

the idle circuit is on the throttle body btw

microtecs are reknowned for having a poor cold start

just gonna have to cope with it , a little bit of fiddling and u will get it better though.

i have numerous mates with microtecs in their vl's , all of which suck on cold starts , i have an autronic and its wonderfull.

bare with it though

im hopin i dont have this problem on my new ltx16 then

they are supposed to be the ducks nuts so i hope that everything goes well for ya.

it also depends on who sets up the computer , how much fuel is goin in on cold etc

anyway good luck mate

MATEY you aint alone, we have a microtech in a gtr and it wont cold start either!!!! we have had our microtech lt12 altered and the idle control wired in and two performance workshops still cant get the thing to idle cold!!!!!!!1

so if you work it out let me know brother!!!!

lol

I'm running an LT12 on my GTS25t. My cold start idle is fine!

Is there an option with it that you can increase the choke when it is cold?

Whatsisname- Is there much difference between 8 and 12?

Cheers

hehe yeah ive got someone pretty reliable to set it up n tune it - for free

then hes gonna show me how to tune it so i dont have to go bak to him to retune it or make a ton of maps

the microtech was pretty cheap too - trade prices $$

I heard from way over here that they are going to a 32bit processor? anyone know if this is true?.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge about them but can you have multiple maps that are easliy changed. That is can you set it up for speed and then next time you drive change it to an easy tune. How much effort is it?

Cheers

[KamikazeR33]

yeah the microtechs (well the newer ones) can hold multiple maps

the LTX12 can hold 15 maps where as the LTX16 can hold 25

pretty sure that was the figure

u just select a different map using the hand controller
