Calum / CalumRT Discussion
have you tried leaning out that portion of the map? i was in the same boat and ended up leaning that portion of the map. are you basically in the same tp/rpm column area as you were na? i noticed on my car that it was dipping to low 11's at idle, but fine everywhere else. i found out that my timing values were retarted due to the car attempting to keep the rpm at 700. out of the idle tps circuit, timing values corresponded to my ign map. after that i just leaned up the area where it would idle and worked out fine. i never saw those columns being used again during cruise/wot/accel in my logs so i thought it was fine, even in colder/warmer weather. if anyone else encountered this, chime in, im still wondering if what i did was correct.

yeah i leaned it out alright. as a bandaid fix i put really low values in the idle area of the map. i have like -40's to get the right afr at idle! thats stupid.
im not sure i understand what you said that you did to "fix" your proplem.
my idle is too high and i guess it could be trying to correct somewhere. i never thought of that. is there a table/map that i should be looking at for that?

yeah, theres a base idle map as a function of coolant temp, just decrease em till your happy.

np, sorry im not in fornt of my personal comp to provide the location, but im sure its on all xdf's. i have a self learning ecu so it always eventually hoans in on 14.7 but i did notice when i droped my rpms from 1200 to 900 the idle afrs definitely changed. lower them and then readjust your k/lat, and with any luck it might get you back to "zeros" in the map.. probably not but worth a shot!!! a good example is when you flick your ac compressor on, your afrs change a few points. not sure why as the entire region is zero'd or in my case set to 14.7 (s14 ecu) but it happens.

Coolkat, what is your timing at idle? I'm having the same problem because of a bad iacv. The ecu pulls timing to 9* when it tries to adjust the idle down and it goes rich. As soon as my timing goes back to 20 the afrs are fine. Try forcing the timing to 20* with the consult test and see if it makes a difference.

I think this has been clarified before, but I'd like to stress again how important it is to make sure your car is in absolute top running condition before you tune. No vaccum/boost leaks, no fuel injectors leaking, no turbo seals leaking, ect.... So many people have problems and we all go into depth trying to help when then after a few days it's "figured it out, i didn't have gas in the car".

i do have a couple of very small boost leaks. they are so small you cant hear them. i used soapy water to find them. one is on the on my FPR at the adjustment screw and the other is on the BOV at its adjustment screw. at 20 psi it took like 20-30 seconds for a 1' diameter bubble to form.
i would think that a vac leak at idle would make it leaner, not stupid rich as it is
ill look at the timing in NDS while at idle and report my find
i guess it could be possible that its a leaking injector. how would you go about checking top feed injectors? when i tried before i took a bath in fuel when the fuel pressure pushed them out of the rail

you pretty much have the same set up as me. i remember doing a leak down test, almost pissing out the injectors because i forgot i had a topfeed rail which didnt have clips to secure the injectors from flying out. i just held each injector while someone else priming it up. doesnt take much. does your aeromotive pressure regulator have a gauge on it? does your hold constant rest pressure?

yes I have a gauge on the side of my FPR. the pressure will drop after i turn the car off. i guess i was thinking that the FPR was letting it bleed down . i never thought that it was a problem, I thought that's just what they did lol. So i guess that means that i got leaking injectors?
that might explain another little symptom that iv been having with the car "sputtering" at idle intermittently. it goes lean on the wideband when it does it <--that should prolly be it a different thread though.

Well fix the damn thing then!.....lol JFWU......R33E8 wrote:Is it ok to remove the front o2 sensor and replace it with a wideband for tuning? My down pipe has a hole in the flex joint right before the wideband o2 sensor so it doesn't read right.. Will the ecu just run in open loop and ignore the o2 sensor missing?

i put my plx-300 in there and it outputs a narrowband signal that you wire to the ecu as well. i'd recommend getting a wideband that can do that if you don't own one yet... that way you can go the way you're suggesting. It seems I drove for over a year with my wideband. Worked awesome.

And I've been running the very same sensor and controller as a narrowband since I bought it from you ~ 2 years now. No issues yet.8-bit wrote:i put my plx-300 in there and it outputs a narrowband signal that you wire to the ecu as well. i'd recommend getting a wideband that can do that if you don't own one yet... that way you can go the way you're suggesting.

Please make another thread about your problems with bikirom. But so you know, there is a chance you loaded a tune that was not intended to be used on your setup, adjusted something like the K value, and now the TP values are far too low...R33E8 wrote:Another question.. I'm using a bikirom ecu but maybe you guys can help.. With some of the KA24de base maps i loaded, the map trace shows me as running max load at idle, when I rev, and when I drive.. I thought it was just a bug or something but when driving around the car bucks and runs super rich under light throttle.. I didn't drive more than 100ft before changing the map back to something that worked. But does anyone know why this might happen?

From here http://www.ztechz.net/id10.html
also, % changes in k value also needs the same % change to your TP values, IIRC increase 10% on K, YOU need to increase TP values by 10%. Coolest thing I've observed with TP is that you can interpolate between two TP values coresponding to the respective psi that produced them and find any other TP/psi relation. ie if 0psi = 50, 5psi = 60, 10psi = 70, you can calculate that 7.5psi will be 65 and 15psi will be 80. Biggest thing to keep in mind when doing it is to make sure you run rpm high enough to reach max TP when finding your first two points.TP is Theoretical Pulsewidth, and the Maps also have a scale based on calculated TP to determine access points for the Maps 16 columns. As the engine sucks in air it registers on the MAF, the MAF emails a 0-5.1v signal back to the ecu, the ecu matches the voltage up on the VQ Table, pulls a number from its anus, and then after a mathematical formula and a smoke break, calculates the TP.
