Summary of change:
I own a Ford Escort Mk1. Building it from scratch up to a Gp4 tarmac spec car. It is powered by an brand new Duratec engine (2,3 liter) witch should deliver 200-250 bhp and is very light. Total weight of the car is about 900 kg's. Well, the whole setup is good for fast-road / track. Now we need to finish it and fire it up. I plan to finish the car this summer. VEMS: 24-1-2006 I received the 3.3 unit. All complete with the sensors and wiring, WB O2, EGT probe and LCD. 25-1-2006 Made parts of the cable's, connected the LCD, modded the housing to take the RS232 port for direct PC interface Accidentaly soldered the RS232 to the pins of the main connector. Better is to mage headers in the board like told in the documentation. Q: Why isn't this a webshop-option ? 26-1-2006 Got the VEMS talking to the PC. Also made the wires tidy. Had problems with the LCD, getting the backlight and contrast right. Q: Posible to ship the LCD with the right adjustable resistors ? It seems to work all fine. Future: First I'll have to finish the car. More and more parts are comming in. When ready I can mount the VEMS in it to get the engine working. Since petrol is getting more and more expensive I'll look for other sources. Since my car is 32 years old it is road-tax free. I can use LPG (Liquid Propane Gas). I sourced Keihin injectors to distribute this gas and I'll have to find a way to alter VEMS to do it.
