I see now why I don't have that problem because I have the injector duty wire hooked up instead of rpm.  It's one or the other and since I was concerned about runnning out of injector head room I chose that one.  The unit needs rpm input to do the gear based learning, I think that's how it works.

correct!

hahaha dude you got a small ****n head...where as I got a big ****n head......dont think it will fit !!! :P  

I want to get my own one anyways....plus I got a mate who has a few motorbike helmets I can borrow....as long as its a full face helmet it should be right eh ?

haha i thought that might be the case..

Yeah any bike helmet would be good enough :D

thanks! :(

Yeah i dont know what it is - Im thinking of turning off the learn mode and running for a while without it.. Does it still boost and hold fine on yours? any bad spiking from it?

One other thing I noticed which may or may not make a difference is that one of the hoses (i think still connected - the one that bleeds off air) has a doughnut shaped piece of metal inside the hose that looks like its supposed to restrict the flow of air or something? The hole in it is very small, alot smaller than the width of the hose - have you got the same thing?

I don't have this restrictor or whatever it is.

I am getting spikes for 2 reasons. One my solenoid is all the way over the other side of the car with a ridiculous amount of hose back to the other side.

Two, I haven't gotten around to tuning the spike out. I think I know how to but just haven't done it yet.

Hey!!!! I think Ive fixed all the problems I had!! - Adam you were right it was definitely the tune :cheers:

I sat down and read the whole manual for the first time, I wish I did before!

:chairshot

It turns out there was some settings that I should have had adjusted but didnt know:

1. The N/E Point for the RPM was monitoring from 3000 - 6500 RPM, and the car winds out to about 6600-6700 before the gear change - so after 6500 it wasnt monitoring the boost anymore! thats why it was going crazy... I set it to monitor 3500 - 7000 and it doesnt spike anymore

2. The Feedback speed I suspect wasnt set fast enough.. it was on 3 - I set it to 5 and I already instead of spiking to 1.28 bar it wont go over .90 - i dont know if the speed being too fast can cause any damage so i dont want to turn it up too much

Plus the car wasnt hitting .90 very quickly - it would only start to hit that boost at very high RPM - in the manual it also told me that 4 Speed A/T cars need to have the gear setting for 5th set to 1... I put that down and now the car hits .90 alot earlier and stays there - no spiking at all!

very happy now! :uh-huh: :uh-huh: :uh-huh:

    • Adjusting the idle screw is usually (emphasis on usually) just covering up deeper issues. Stuff like the cold start valve not closing properly. Throttle shaft seals on the way out. Coolant temp sensors getting out of spec. Coolant temp sensors especially can be a bear to diagnose because they can fail subtly. My dad just spent weeks chasing down his high idle. He cleaned the coolant temp sensor and everything but the resistance curve just drifts over time and if it's been 20+ years they also get super slow to respond as well. Has a massive effect on fuel economy as if it's off the ECU is going to run richer and command high idle for far longer than it should otherwise.
    • How old is the battery, it's more likely your battery is on its way out.
    • I reckon you'd get 90% off. My washer doesn't get between spokes very well. Haha! I love my Gerni!  Argh! Steam cleaning has its place for sure.
    • Hey all, I did a voltage test with the car (video attached) not running for 3 days. And here is some interesting stuff: - Battery voltage is 12v (I had the key in the ON position) - Drops to 9.76v while cranking then quickly goes up to 14.5v - You will notice there was a sorta slow start but not as slow as it usually is. - Idle surprisingly was better at just over 1,000rpm instead of 1,100 rpm. - I turned on the A/C, radio and headlights in the video and the voltage remains the same - I haven't cleaned the grounding wires on the chassis yet, that's next. - Battery drops to 12.6v when I turn off the car and wait a bit Seems like I might have a parasitic draw? I do have an immobiliser system which does drain the battery more of course but was wondering if there is anything else I should be looking at fixing? Does the ground wires on the chassis have anything to do with the low 12v?        SAU.avi
    • My lord that is some low oil pressure as minimum in the manual! I guess the big part will be seeing how it changes as the engine gets more spirited use.
