1993 Audi USA B4 90 quattro with 4.2 ABZ V8.

ECU V3.6

FW 1.2.20

VT 1.5.46

60-2 TTV flywheel

Audi OEM cam sensor

OEM injectors (220cc) quite small, should be easy to tune

It was the ~10% alpha-N setting I inherited from the member who gave me his config. Made it 0% and now idle is stable.

Out of nowhere the idle began oscillating and A/F swings from .8 to 1.4 and engine dies. A/F under load is fine. Just idle is messed up. I did not change anything, but now the beast is untamed again.

quite lean lambda (1.04) in idle range configured, causing some hunting on return to idle

Good tuning strategy:


SUCCESS!

Obtained good config from member Dangerrous, spent some hours verifying pinouts and calibration, then VROOM!

Discovered that main problem was TDC after trigger was 30 degrees too high, as suggested by anonymous member. I suspected this but was too dumb to make the math with the engine installed - no access to sensor, but invented a way last night. Still need timing light to fine tune.

Right now there is strange behavior from the ISV in that it won't go below 1300 rpm and attempts to lower the rpm result in HIGHER rpm. So... carefully reading the documentation (rtfm). Ah yes... INVERT the output! Sometimes I wonder how I can even tie my shoes.
