spark angle and rpm aratic at times

Post by tyrone27 »

I have a scirocco 16v running MS1 v2.2 with extra. firmware is 027. well I made a datalog to day of the car from cold start to warm up and driving. from what I can see spark angle and RPm are all over the place. I don't know what the problem might be. the car is running rich I know that. I just installed ms1 yesterday and just got the car started and trying to get it to run right. can someon look at my logs and give advice. the IAT sensor is bad in the log. what happened was I tried 2 open elment ones and they all failed so I brought a closed element one installed in the manifold and its reading colder then what it really is. its 65F outside.

I'm going to try to use Autotune to get it to tune the car a little. I tried it last night but for a out of taget range message with e default setting. I'm going to try these setting to see of it will work better:

* allowAutoTune = on
* corrector = egoCorrection
* Vertex tolerance parameters
o xRadius = 200 ; rpm
o yRadius = 7 ; map
* Tuning block parameters
o xLimits = 900, 7000 ; rpm
o yLimits = 30, 110 ; map
o zLimits = 10, 200 ; VE
* Controller parameters
o initialStartupInterval = 1.0 ; seconds
o updateInterval = 1.0 ; seconds
o proportionalGain = 0.5
o lumpiness = 10 ; percent
