How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Hi,
When I was at WOT with my car, it looks like it missed but very fast. When I was looking datalog, it appears PW1 went to 0 but I didnt hit rev limiter or Something like that. What could make this happens and why when reviewing a datalog, PW1 and PW2 could be different that much? I'm not using EGO correction.
Thanks

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Is this, perhaps, related to the problem reported here?

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Hi billr, thanks for the fast answer and information you gave me. I dont think its related as I have a MS2 3,57 and the real concern is: How PW1 went to a pulse of 0 when not PW2 and no rev limiter active at that moment ??? In other datalogs, I've seen a good difference between PW1 and PW2 during a steady load witch should be close each other in a "2 squirts / alternating mode".billr wrote:Is this, perhaps, related to the problem reported here?

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Hi
Your Differenz in PW1 vs PW2 are OK!
For safety: Open Different Bank Setting in Injector Dead Time and make the same Setting with Bank1!
Your PW1 to 0: Load the FW new and Test it.

Hi Frank, look at 368,095, you will see PW2 is lower than PW1, for me, its anormal.franksidebike wrote:Hi

I will do what you recommanded, and reload the firmware and give some test. I'll report back today.
Thanks

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Want a guess? Try turning off the "launch control". That is the only thing I see that has some kind of threshold right at 4000 rpm. I'm thinking that if your input for flat-shift is flaky it could be triggering when not intended.
Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Lets say you're right. If thats the case, why I see a solid 1023 on ADC7, status1 to 9 and status2 and status3 to 0 while PW1 went to 0?billr wrote:Want a guess? Try turning off the "launch control".

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
As requested, I did my homework and did what you guys asked.
Reloaded firmware
Put same deadtime for bank1 and bank2
I did change flat s*** limiter to 1500 RPM to see during normal road testing, if I will get the issue. I'm in the process of reviewing all logs but heres new MSQ and MSL with the issue happens on both banks !!!

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Still just guessing, of course, but I would turn that "launch" completely off; make sure it is out of the picture.

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
With "Basic Trigger" it is possible that a noise pulse came in generating a false high RPM which tripped the rev limiter briefly. With the relatively slow speed of datalogs (compared to the engine) you won't always capture that.

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
Hi James, what do suggest me to fix that issue? Tomorrow, I will disable launch/flat shift to test if it still there.jsmcortina wrote:With "Basic Trigger" it is possible that a noise pulse came in generating a false high RPM which tripped the rev limiter briefly.

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
If that is the rev-limiter engaging, I wonder why we don't see the spark retarding along with the fuel cut?
Try turning off the rev-limiter, see if that eliminates the problem. (Just as a "diagnostic test", not permanent solution).
Is your "basic trigger" mechanical points, or some kind of electronic switch?

Re: How PW1 and PW2 could be different?
As "stats" how many time I get the issue, on 8 WOT pull, I got the problem 2 times.
Today, I remove the fuel cut for revlimiter but keep spark cut and disable completely Launch/Flatshift option. I did 6 WOT pull and none gave me the issue. In the next days, will continue to run the car hard to try to make it happens. If the Launch/Flatshift was trigger, I dont understand with ADC7 remains to 1023 like if the input remains to the same voltage (5V) !!!
