    Detecting detonation

    Hehehe.... I can assure you he has. But this begs the question... how on earth do you use a mechanical stethoscope while driving? :-)))

    Detecting detonation

    Since this thread is already at the top, I might as well say Good Point. It is a judgement call in each case... In this particular one my judgement is questionable because I just lost my newly rebuilt engine to detonation yesterday. I will have to pull and disassemble it yet again. But that's...

    I'm bumping this thread because I REALLY want to hear those sound clips! Please post them if you have any. Cheers

    Code 24 w/maft pro

    Heheh, I had a good laugh at your sense of humour, after feeling misunderstood and frustrated first. lol. :-) My mind was going in the track that the Maftpro supplies a voltage, which a resistor couldn't possibly replace. But I forgot that the ECU is actually supplying the voltage normally...

    Code 24 w/maft pro

    Hold up a second.... I'm not leaving the maftpro hooked up to THA "just because", or for some strange conviction :-) I just hadn't realized yet that the resistor will actually replace what the maftpro is doing for the air temp signal. Is this the resistor you're talking about for dealing with...

    Code 24 w/maft pro

    I'm going to digress a little here.... I am definately running with the maftpro hooked up to THA, and that won't change soon, so a resistor is out of the question. However, that code 24 (and the related code 35) are really not much of a nuisance. It's the code 21 caused by having no stock 02...

    maftpro is working

    Halsupramk3 (or anyone else), did you ever find a permanent fix to getting rid of code 21 (02 sensor heater short circuit) while running without the stock 02 sensor? I'm also curious to know if that set of 3x1 ohm resistors was the real culprit behind your ECU failure. P.S. I'm talking about...

    Code 24 w/maft pro

    If you do put a resistor in place between THA and E1, will that affect the signal that the ECU is receiving from the maftpro?

    Advice on Machine Work For Fully Built Motor??

    A rule of thumb that was passed on to me by Reg Reimer was that if you can file your fingernail down on the surface, it's too rough. My machine shop gave me a finish of 20-25 microns using good equipment with a CBN cutter, and I could file my nail down on that. I took a lapping disc to it and...

    MAFT-Pro VE Table

    I can think of two things that apply here: 1. The ECU's default fuel map goes hardcore rich at WOT at those rpm's, so you'll have a lot to pull out. 2. The stock CT26 puts out far less pressure at the higher rpm's, so your VE would naturally be lower. I actually have a VE of 77 from 4600rpm at...

    Advice on Machine Work For Fully Built Motor??

    What are your plans to achieve the RA finish you want on the head and block surfaces? Milling (and praying), Grinding, or Milling and then Lapping?

    MAFT-Pro VE Table

    On the subject of pulling the stock 02 sensor, what's your plan to avoid code 21? FYI I have been tuning for at least a year now using the VE table directly. I did this right from the start... my user tune values are all zero. I'm just getting ready to pull the stock 02 sensor and go permanent...

    New MAFTPro 5.03 Install questions

    Did the 10 ohm resistor work for you? A TPS value of 3.27 is normal. Nothing to worry about AFAIK.

    New MAFTPro 5.03 Install questions

    Go into the ALDL log setup screen from the menu, select the session you want to play, and hit the play arrow. It should start playing back on the graphs. Bug workaround: If the session you want to play is already selected, select another session first, and then re-select the session you want...

    Ground points

    Well here's a pic of what I did. The strap goes from the metal bracket behind the fuel lines to the upper bolt on the drivers side of the engine-to-bellhousing removable mount on that side. The pic is looking up. Towards the top of the pic is towards the passengers side, and you can see the...

    Suprarx7nut 's 7MGE BHG repair job done right (hopefully)

    Just to pull this thread back from a month ago.... :-) In your first thread you mention many ziploc bags. Good idea. In addition to this, I highly recommend screwing bolts and nuts back into where they go after you take each part off. This saves a ton of work labelling and bagging them, and...
