Summary of change:
'''Fuel Settings''' '''Wiring''' Injector wiring was completed & tested last night. It looks better than the factory wiring! Also took the time to hoover out the soil and powdered grot from engine. (Best not to ask...) It looks a whole lot cleaner now. [Picture!] '''Config''' I think that's it for the electrical bits, so it's time to make a config! '''VE Table''' My VE table estimate using the estimator from the Megasquirt website: [need to add table - it's not with me here.] If anything, it's a little optimistic - which is no bad thing for a 1st attempt as it only means too much fuel. '''Injector size & timing parameters''' I have estimated the size of Rover v8 injectors at around 210 cc/min. I have used just over middle-of-the-road values for opening times based on stuff found in the wiki [add link!!] Does anyone have more accurate info? They aren't flow matched from the factory and are quite old, so given the tolerances for them reported on PistonHeads it'll do for now. (I plan to change the injectors shortly anyway - and when I do, they will be flow matched and tested.) [add config section for injector parameters here] Any comments would be appreciated '''Injector firing order''' I will be running banks of 2 injectors (so there are 4 banks) until I get the cam trigger working (this can't be done until my coils arrive). *Is the correct way of doing this to repeat the group of 4 items in the h[0] table? '''Fuel pump''' Fuel pump relay has been connected. I'm using EC36 pin15. Presumably I need to set the 2 config items in Megatune to P259, channel 5? '''etc...''' A Lambda table has also been created, but obviously won't do anything until the wideband sensor is installed. Cranking and CLT warmup settings are pretty much OK as the default. They can only sensibly be tuned by experiment anyway... No idea what to do with acceleration enrichment right now. I guess it's something that you can worry about when you have a running car. '''Sanity check:''' I've been through everything I can think of now, so time for a sanity check before I do some damage... I've written up all I can remember doing last night but something is bound to have been forgotten. What else do I need to do/check before I can fire the car up to see if it will run?
